I welcome you at my virtual Clinic. I have carefully gone through your case and want to assure you that sometimes there is problem with the Blood Pressure apparatus, the situation in which you got your blood pressure checked, person who took B.P.
So I reassure you that with only one ,out of range value of blood pressure never means that you have Blood Pressure issues.
