Hello As you mentioned that your B P was 153/ 103 mm of Hg and blood sugar level is 120 pp after meal . Felling lightheadedness . yes this is concerning . In normal circumstances blood pressure is 120 /80 mm of Hg. The lower blood pressure 103 in your case is very high and known as diastolic blood pressure . In my opinion this is concerning and you must consult your doctor and get his opinion . Good luck.
