my BMI calss me as obease, however i eat well and exercise every now and again!. im only 22 and am a male!.
one number is high one number is low, does that mean on average its ok!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
No!. The top number is too high and the bottom number is way low!.
You can't average them out, it don't work that way!.
At 22 you bp should be between 120-130 on the top and between 68-82 on the bottom!.
You don't say how you arrived at the numbers!. Were they obtained in a doctors office, drugstore machine, home bp monitor, etc!.
That can go a long way in determining if the number is correct or not!.
If you have concerns consult a doctor!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

they are the numbers that relate to the blood going into and out of the heart, I think its called the aortic valve, 148 is fine but 43 is very low, it should be about 148/65Www@Answer-Health@Com

note your bp for 2 weeks and follow up with your doctor!. get a referral to a nutritionist and an exercise program!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
