hi;
If you are on medicine for BP or do not have any symptom it could be normal.Remember that blood pressure of a person varies every time through out the day .If you are at rest it will be normal ;if you run or work it will increase .Sometimes if you don't drink enough water or you sweat & there is salt depletion blood pressure can be found low .If you are worried please drink some water with electrolyte powder & recheck after 3-4 hours i hope you will find it normal.
thanks
