Answers:
Hey your blood pressure is fine its normal for your age with nothing to worry about dont!. Try not to pay too much attention from peoples answers on here!. Your too young to be worried about such things as your blood pressure and wether or not your going to have a heart attack!. Your still a kid go and be one!. But again to put your mind at rest you blood pressure is normal for your age, and the fact your family doesn't have a heart medical history is a good sign!. Now go out side and play!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It is over the current recommended level!.

But only a few years ago it was considered normal and healthy!.


Your not going to have any problems, mine used to be 160-190 over 90 for extended periods of time due to anger issues at work


Limit your salt intake and your saturated fat and start doing more cardio if your worried about it!.

I am a paramedic!. This BP is not alarming what so ever for any age!. 120/80 is ideal, but you are in the average range for your age/gender!. If you are worried about your health, which it sounds you are, you need some exercise and rethink your diet!.

Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well thats a little higher than normal but i bet it would go down to a more healthy level if you started eating better!. Low sodium foods, prepared meals are really bad for that! Most importantly dont eat out!Www@Answer-Health@Com
