Im 26 years old with a blood pressure of 140/83 is that bad?

Only a little high: That blood pressure is just a little high. We usually want to make sure that the device is measuring your blood pressure accurately and that it is performed with at least 5 min. Sitting in a resting position. Blood-pressure changes from moment to moment so have your doctor check it but yes that is a little high. Nothing to worry about. Get checked with a good machine.
