Yes, It may be a cause for worry. I would recommend a visit to ER and get yourself checked. An ECG and a few blood test may be required.
Though Systolic BP (numerator) of 140-150 is not of much concern even if it is slightly higher than normal, your diastolic BP (denominator) is very high.
Consult with a cardiologist if possible.
Hope this answers your question, Thank you.
