I saw all those, but I think I just have a pretty consistent blood pressure that is moderate hypertension. My doctor put me on the lowest dose of Licinoprol, so I'll get a device to check every once in a while.

I really posted here about my doctor's strong concern about my resting heart rate of 57. I am a very active person who goes to the gym for 60-90 minutes a day, 5 days a week, and I walk 2-3+ miles with hill hiking up to 30 floors a day

Here is a source with a chart that places you in safe territory. See the chart for women.

But really, the question does need to be asked, and the cardiologist should have to answer it to your satisfaction. Why are you concerned about a heart rate three beats below the approved lower limit for women my age given my level of activity, intensity, and overall cardiac fitness?
