Good to hear that, you are sexually active at this age inspite of the chronic diseases like Hypertension and Diabetes. In many people, both the conditions lead to certain weakness in the sexual performance due to the direct effect on the circulation and the nerves of the body. But, if you keep an eye on the levels of your blood sugar and blood pressure, it will not affect your sexual life at all. Go for regular exercise and eat healthy food which will control your sugar and the blood pressure. Quit smoking and drinking if any; because it may affect the hypertension, diabetes and the Sexual Health also.
