You can take your blood pressure as often as you like. But to make sure that you are getting an accurate reading you should be taking it the same time of day for a couple days in a row to really have a good idea of what it is at. Do it when you are relaxed.

Use a digital device for blood pressure checking, and follow instructions which come together with the device.
For a complete evaluation of your blood pressure, take it twice a day, morning and afternoon during a week, take note of the results. and bring the result to your medical doctor.
