Where did you have your blood pressure checked ? Based on your symptoms, which can be cause by several problems, it is best the you have your Doc evaluate you. He/she knows your medical history. Yes, contact your Doc.

Although 141/103 is high it isn't critically high.
The problem with high blood pressure is that it causes may other problems when left untreated.
At the level you're at the high blood pressure could eventually facilitate a heart attack or stroke, kidney disfunction, and poor circulation.
You should see a doctor to get medication to help lower your pressure and cut salt from your diet.

Saturated fat is the main dietary cause of high blood cholesterol. Saturated fat is found mostly in foods from animals such as beef, beef fat, veal, lamb, pork, lard, poultry fat, butter, cream, milk, cheeses and other dairy products. Foods from plants that contain saturated fat include coconut, coconut oil, palm oil and palm kernel oil (often called tropical oils), and cocoa butter.
High cholesterol causes high blood pressure. The best thing for high cholesterol is Losing weight. A plant-based diet in conjunction with a properly conducted fast most often leads to a total recovery or a vast improvement in hypertension and angina.

YES.

Your blood pressure is definitely too high, and you seem to have trouble with circulation and fluid retention too.

Good luck.
