You're resting blood pressure is low. Every ones blood pressure is high when exercising.
Maybe we shouldn't exercise but wait, exercise is healthy. Is the answer that BP should be low most of the time?
Maybe a low fat diet is the answer, but wait, the liver makes cholesterol while we sleep that the body needs.
Ok take statins to prevent that. Wear a Holter for a couple of months. If no sign of AFIB you can come off the blood thinners. Wait, what happens after the 60th day? Better to stay on them.

Madness!

Yes especially about BP. I have always wondered how that snap shot of your BP while trying to be almost comotose related to the reading through out the day. With even the slightest movement causing a spike. Society has a fascination with their medical care. But yes there are plenty of "rabbit holes" to go down 👍🏼

A diet low in meat, cheese, dairy, sugar and higher in fresh fruits and veggies, avocados, seeds and nuts which have healthy fats. I am 77 yrs old this month, walk up and down steep hills to town every day, with no cane, clean my house, and rarely take a sliver of a pill. Have only baby aspirin and benydryl in my house, just a few them in case of allergic reaction, Where I live, you can buy just a 3 or 4 pills at a time, and most of the time they get old before I use them.
