Yes, -it makes perfect sense and you haven't a thang to be worried about.
The 68 is what makes the blood circulate (and it isn't really 68...anyway, -honest)
The 142 is a fairly meaningless number, because (despite the doctors) it depends on how well your arteries resonate.. (again, -honest!)
You're in the pink. -enjoy ...
