Detailed Answer:
Hello!

Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!

Regarding your concern, I would explain that your blood pressure values are within the normal ranges.

The difference between systolic and diastolic blood pressure is quite normal for your age. It is related to the blood vessels compliance and does not indicate any serious medical disorder.

So, there is nothing to worry about!

Hope to have been helpful!

Kind regards,

Dr. Iliri
