Is 92 considered a high Diastolic Blood Pressure
Yes, Glenda, 92 is high in diastolic.
normal range for diastolic is 60-90
Thanks.

Blood pressure is measured using two numbers. The first number, called systolic blood pressure, measures the pressure in your blood vessels when your heart beats. The second number, called diastolic blood pressure, measures the pressure in your blood vessels when your heart rests between beats.

If the measurement reads 120 systolic and 80 diastolic, you would say “120 over 80” or write “120/80 mmHg.”

My blood pressure is 141/100 should I be worried
It's a little higher above the normal range. How old are you? Consult a doctor about drug use. Live a healthy life and check out the blood pressure per month to get it controlled.
Can anyone share a BP chart? Low, moderate, high...

my bp is 140/102 and pulse rate is 103 , i have difficulty in breathing what must i do i dont take any medication
The BP is quite beyond the normal range (90-140/60-90). If you are having symptoms like chest pain, headache or something unpleasant, see a doctor now. You need to relax, avoid stimulation drinks, keep a journal of your BP readings and see your doctor for evaluation and treatment. Your pulse is also higher than normal (60-100). As you have difficulty in breathing, it's strongly recommended that you see a doctor right away.
Actually I have a question,but didn't know where to ask.My diastolic pressure is usually 83 to85-is that normal? I tend to have chronic sciatic pain&was concerned about the lower #.Usually 125/85.
Your blood pressure is not very good. Ideal blood pressure is less than 120/80 mmHg. When blood Pressure gets above 139/90 mmHg, it is high. You should monitor your blood pressure regularly. Also, you can improve your lifestyle to adjust your blood pressure by eating a low-salt diet, stopping smoking and restricting alcohol, and exercising moderately.
