The upper reading is appropriate. The lower reading is not. In addition, a blood pressure is meaningless without knowing the pulse. Seeing a physician is good advice.

agreed, 32 is FAR to low. lowest should be 60 or high 50s. i would advise to see a doctor if that is the correct reading as soon as possible.

Are you sure that bottom number is only 32?  That is very low.
