Hello, my name is Dr.Dorina Gurabardhi. I understand your concern.
The norme of blood pressure is more than 120 over 80 and less than 140 over 90 (120/80-140/90).
So I think that your blood pressure is normal.
Small changes can depend on many reasons like
nutrition, sleep, physical activity etc.
Hope my answer was helpful, if you have any other questions I'll be glad to help, thanks!
