I just bought some potassium gluconate supplements. Will that do?
I don't know what that is, exactly, but potassium is not good for your kidneys. Be careful and research everything you put into your body very carefully. I would see a doc for sure, but I prefer naturopaths, because I believe in holistic approaches to every malady (with exceptions).
HBP is nothing to mess around with. I am on a very low dose of lisinopril with zero side effects. Buy an Omron arm cuff monitor (they are more reliable than wrist monitors). Try to keep sodium under 1500 mg daily.
I usually don't add salt, but I eat fast foods like 2-3 times a week. I'll buy burger, fries, and tacos. You think I would have to quit fast food already?
2-3 times per week is pretty bad. Treat yourself monthly, instead. Once a month is still bad, but not as bad as 2-3 times per week. Make tacos at home using spices - very easy to make and low sodium.

It's a myth that salt causes chronic high blood pressure. There is no benefit from a low salt diet, but doctors keep on recommending it.
A generally healthy diet and exercise should keep blood pressure normal. Do NOT try the drugs if your lifestyle is unhealthy. Improve your lifestyle first, and give it plenty of time, you can't fix everything overnight.
