Hello. Thank you for posting.

Your blood pressure is on the higher side of normal.

Requirement for a high normal blood pressure is a value of 130-139 over 85-89.

If your systolic (upper) would increase from 133 mmHg to -13 mmHg and your diastolic (lower) value would increase by 10 mmHg your blood pressure would be no more 'high normal' but 'Hypertension Stage 1'.

Here is some information that may be helpful in understanding your reading. You should speak with your doctor about any concerns.
