Likely: If you have any concerns you should have your doctor take your blood pressure in both arms and legs. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs.

L&R arm BP: Since the differences between the BP in both arms is only about 5 mms, I wouldn't be concerned about that. A good goal for you would be about 130/80 or lower. Lifestyle changes( ideal weight, low salt,caffeine, alcohol intake, less stress, good sleep, regular exercise) may be all you need to achieve this or low dose medication may be needed. Discuss with your MD.
