Is 159/80 and pulse 64 normal

Nope: Pulse is good but blood pressure is high. Monitor it and follow up with your doctor. You need to ensure it is consistently that high and not situational before starting any meds. Until then, work on a healthy diet and weight loss.

Hypertension.: While your heart rate is fine, your blood pressure is high. Has it been high before? With numbers in this range, if these are your usual, medications might be in order in addition to lifestyle measures.
