Hi I am 60 year old male my blood pressure is consistently circa 150/80 I dont and have never smoked, I dont drink more than a glass or two of wine a week and have a good low salt diet. My Cholesterol is high but it has always been that way since I fist had it checked in my 30s. is my blood pressure something to be concerned about or is it just my norm?
Hello systolic Blood pressure of 150 is considered to be slightly high as the recommended range is 140/90. As you have said that you are already maintaining good lifestyle habits. So I would like to advice to start on low dose on antihypertensive medicine like Amlodipine after consulting your doctor personally. I wish you good health
