What Blood Pressure Levels Can Be Considered Normal For A 72-year-old Man?

I am 72 years old male sr. citizen. What should be normal BP for me? From my log of BP of last 10 days, I have observed that my BP is near normal ie 120-139/70-85-afternoon onwards. But 140-150/90-100 in the morning. I am using OMRON BP monitor. Arvind Kale

140 and below is fine even in your age 150/90 is fine too but not more than this, n my opinion your BP readings are very satisfactory and you should feel contenteed regarding them., if this medication is helping you then it is suggested to keep the same meds continued.
