Hi there , welcome to HCM

Well the very first thing that I'd like you to do is calm down , just relax for a bit.

Yes resting HR of 105/min is definitely tachycardia but that doesn't mean you need to be so panicky. Also average BP of 141/93MMHG can be just normal for some individuals.

These are just clinical findings which needs to be thoroughly evaluated thoroughly before coming down to some conclusion.

First of all just get a 12Lead ECG done (preferably with long lead II), also please attach it here so that I can comment further

Please don't panic and try to understand that Tachycardia can be there even in a otherwise healthy individual, doesn't necessarily mean that you're having a heart condition.

But my advice in this case would be to get a proper metabolic work-up done(CBC, Serum Electrolytes , Thyroid Function Test, ESR along with 12Lead ECG off course ) before coming down to any conclusion

Thanks a lot for contacting HCM , let me update further in your next follow-up
