Hello welcome to HCM.
I have read your question and understand your concerns.
Normal blood pressure is less than 140 /90 mmhg in resting state. But usually at younger age it should remain less than 130/80mmhg levels.

My advice to you is -

1.Your blood pressure is absolutely normal at present. Nothing to worry.

2.Sometimes in hot and humid environment due to dehydration person may feel dizziness. You can avoid it by drinking plenty of water or drink lemon water when required.

Thank you.
I hope I have given you satisfactory answer.
