Brief Answer:
There are a series of things.
Detailed Answer:
That will be milligram of xanax and 0.5 (an average dose). A normal blood pressure would tend to say the methamphetamine is not doing anything very bad. It's worst effects are generally within certainly 2 hrs of use. By 6 hrs it is certainly starting to wear off.
Blood pressure fluctuates. With exercise it is not a valid reading and can go easily 30 points above the resting value and be perfectly ok.
54 and doing methamphetamine and xanax is not going to go well, however. The two of course have opposite effects and if someon is using strong (and illegal) medications like a trampoline, this is a serious problem.
Counseling, meetings, and there WILL be withdrawal from both. The withdrawal from multiple xanax per day for weeks or longer probably needs 48 hrs of inpatient observation. Withdrawal from amphetamine feels like xanax and does not need hospitalization. It is hard psychologically to come off of regular amphetamine use.
In the short term, blood pressure of about the normal range is not dangerous. Signs of stroke, severe headache, disorientation and other serious symptoms would be a reason to go to an emergency room. Just difficulty sleeping is expected and not an emergency.

that was only 2nd time in my life tried meth threw away what was left in have had a xanax scrip for many years and usually take. 25 at might to sleep don't need more than that amount used last night and will use tonight very unusual if I don't do meth again a should feel better in couple days correct?
Brief Answer:
People vary.
Detailed Answer:
Ok, 25 milligram a night is a very good sleeping pill because it is short acting. The drug isn't there for most of the day and while there is tremendous psychological dependence on it, it is very hard for me to imagine physical dependence (like withdrawal seizures).
So, there can be psychological effects of drugs that do not depend on the drug being there. Illegal use of any drug especially if used very rarely can have psychological effects (guilt, panic) and this can last weeks to months. They physical effects days to about a week. Serious problems would have already occurred in the first few hours. Mild psychological effects that are short lasting are a bit uncommon. Long term psychological effects from methamphetamine used rarely is really rare. I've only seen a handful of meth users of any kind and mostly they were using it for work rarely and not with any dependence (or enjoyment). None had even as much as you are having and certainly none had any effects for even a week after infrequent dosing.
