certainly blood pressure is high. however you have mentioned that no ecg changes on tmt, so most probably you don't have any heart problems other than hypertension. So need to track your blood pressure. I would have increased telmisartan to 40 in my patient and monitored blood pressure.
overall no need to worry consume low salt diet and healthy lifestyle and regular medicine.
