No: How are you taking your blood pressure, as the top number, systolic, seems low. Is it an automatic device? If so did you get it calibrated? Many automatic devices can be inaccurate-check it at your local doctor's office.

High heart rate ?BP: A heart rate of 105 at rest is high. Some of the causes include deconditionong, obesity, diabetes, anxious disposition, anemia, smoking, hyperactive thyroid, dehydration, fever, certain medications such as vasodilators or a heart rhythm abnormality to name a few. A blood pressure of 67/66 is an incorrect measurement. If you mean 167/66 it is high and needs to be addressed.

No: Who took your blood pressure ? The systolic (higher no.) pressure is typically about 30-40 (mm hg) higher than the lower number. I find it hard to believe that is a correct number as the higher number reflects the pressure created when the heart beats and the lower number reflects the pressure when the heart is between beats.
