high blood pressure

hi,

i'm 28 and my bp has been around 135/90. I know this is high. I smoke and drink. (which obviously i know i have to quit). But is this bp very high and something to worry about? I am now panicing because my next medical is around the corner and this is obviously going to make it worse.
Is there anything i can do to reduce it quickly. Obviously i know what i have to do long term but is there any short term solutions?

Thanks for the help
