Hi welcome to healthcare Magic
The above values of BP is normal, systolic is between 100 to 140 and diastolic BP is between 60 to 90.. however normal heart rate is 60 to 100.. continue thyroid medications... nothing to worry..

hello
120/80 to 129/89 is normal BP
60 to 100 is normal heart rate
as your husband is suffering from hypothyroidism he is likely to develop low cardiac output resulting in low bp and low heart rate.it may lead to cardiac complication(myocardial infarction) at later stage so its better to control thyroid levels.
homoeopathy has good result for controlling thyroid complication.
good luck
