Whats your question?: It says your age is 45 so your daughter is probably 15 to 25 but I'm just guessing. The blood pressures you mention are perfectly normal for a female in that age group. The real question is why she needed epinephrine to maintain her blood pressure. That is an intervention only taken during resuscitation for life threatening conditions such as major trauma, sepsis, or anaphylactic shock.
