Is 164/86 Normal Level Of BP?

I had what I thought was a migraine last night, Vomited violently which usually makes it better, not this time. Still had it this morning and checked my BP which was 150/92 and I am usually right at 120/80. I had an average BP today of 164/86 is that bad? I am 41 with a 50% blockage of the RCA and SVT as well as many other spine problems and I have to take a lot of pain meds.

Cardiologist 's  Response
Hello, thanks for posting a question on our site.
A normal blood pressure is 120/80 mmHg. A blood pressure above 140/90 mmHg is defined as hypertension. A blood pressure of 164/86 mmHg is not good couple with your history of blockage. I advise that you consult a cardiologist for a physical evaluation, so you can be started on the appropriate medication. Stay healthy. Warm regards
