One number is higher than normal one is lower, so what does that mean.

higher/lower than normal

It means you have pre-hypertension. Not bad enough to take meds, but still less than ideal

For starters, heredity does play a part in anything that happens with your body. I don't necessarily think you're overweight, that's just me. If you think you're overweight, then start a program for yourself that you follow daily, in which you exercise, and eat healthy. Both of those will give you a weight that you want and the lower blood pressure. Like I said before, there are some factors playing in you that you can't control. Congrats on the good grades, and hard classes. I'm taking all honors classes in high school, and classes at the college, so I understand how hard it is to make good grades. If your parents are that excited for you, I'm sorry, and I hope they become excited. My parents are happy for me when I get good grades, but that's because that's what they expect of me. I hope everything works out for you. I'm only 17, so I can understand your position on everything, and I'm not necessarily healthy either. My doctor said I fell in the same group that my peers did, right where I was supposed to be, but I think I'm a little overweight, so I understand that. If you have any questions, or you just want to talk, e-mail me.

3 years ago, I was diagnosed - hypertension with a reading of 160/100. I used to feel dizzy a lot, my legs had awful cramps, and levels were very low in my potassium, causing my fingers and toes to always cramp together. One day I started to feel really faint while I was driving with my daughter in the back seat and I passed out, hitting 3 cars and ending up in a ditch. That moment,I knew I had to do something because my meds weren't working. I heard about this diet from a friend and thought I'd give it a shot. The results have been remarkable. In just 21 days, I honestly can't remember feeling this good, my blood pressure went from 175/110 to 125/70.

132/70 means your systolic pressure [ the top one ] is a little elevated above normal. If everything else is healthy, and you aren't pregnant [ hehehe ], it just means you were probably a little stressed or nervous about something.

That's a perfectly acceptable BP. If that systolic stays elevated all the time, it could eventually be a problem, but 132 is fine.
