May I know your age?
smoking? weight
high cholesterol is certainly a risk factor for cardiac disease so you should consume low fat and sugar diet along with regular exercise.
Sometime someone's low blood pressure may be normal for that person unless he is suffering from severe heart disease which is not your case.
High pulse rate may be low oxygen level in the blood. so get oxygen levels tested.
do you have any sleep related problems like snoring or interrupted sleep, anxiety problem etc
