Is 110/85 blood pressure okay

I am 33yr old male 5'9" 155lbs. Been kinda worried about pulse pressure (difference between systolic and diastolic) lately. They say normal pulse pressure is 40mmhg but with that reading mine is 25. I have read other people who state they have that pressure and their doctors say it is good. I read that if you have it under 25 it could be from heart failure but I dont have any symptoms of that. My resting heart rate is usually 60-65

but the point is, you have a pulse pressure of 40 or above. The question is based around a pulse pressure of 25.

Well, heart failure or not, you would expect to see your heart rate much higher to try and compensate for your pulse pressure. As your pulse is normal, I would have to question the accuracy of the blood pressure readings. I would get your Doctor to take your blood pressure using a stethascope.
