without medication? And they are currently at around 220 lbs and in their mid thirties. Would they reach 40 without any medication to help control the blood pressure? What do you think. Just wondering.

well that is pretty high,
In the question of how long they would last without meds, well it all depends on how they take care of themselves despite the medication. If they exercise and eat right then high blood pressure would be their only prob but if it has to do with congested arteries and veins
I wouldn’t want to say but maybe not till fifty at the least when it comes to those type of complications.
Ok!…if ur B/P was that high you need to get to the drs ASAP! thats extremely high normal is 120/80 or lil bit over that.. and without any meds u could go into a heart attackor even die!, i have high b/p and mines never that high my doc would prob kill me!
Check it again if it was done by a machine, those numbers are wrong.
That set of numbers seems wrong…I am not doubting that one of them may be correct but for both to be so close does not seem right. If this BP test was taken in a department store dont even believe the result as its highly likely the machine is faulty.
If this reading was taken on a reliable machine then its not good news and they should be seen by a doctor fairly swiftly for proper evaluation and medication.
I would say go to your physican or hospital have it checked asap. dont wait
