All the figures given here for the blood pressure is normal one, let me inform you that blood pressure need to be only measured by physician, if you are going to read it on your own then it may show the error, again if you do not have any symptoms then it is nothing to worry, for the correct reading of blood pressure one has to consult the physician.
Hope I have answered your query,
