Blood Pressure~

Blood Pressure Level (mmHg)

Normal - Systolic = less than 120 or diastolic = less than 80

Prehypertension - Systolic = 120-139 or Diastolic = 80-89


High Blood Pressure
Stage 1 Hypertension - Systolic = 140–159 or Diastolic = 90–99
Stage 2 Hypertension - Systolic = greater than or equal to 160 or greater than or equal to 100

well the above are categories for blood pressure levels in adults (ages 18 years and above)..

last christmas.. mine reached stage 1 hypertension lol...that's the reason why i suddenly faint sometimes...well my sister tested my pressure and the values were systolic = 14x and diastolic = 9x lols....a bit surprised but expected it le....i guess i worry too much about something....guess what it is...
