Blood pressure monitor

I got myself one of those wrist BP monitors today, and I am pleased to say, my blood pressure was 113/78 - lowest it's been for some time :bigsmile:

Beware of the wrist monitors, they are not always that accurate, i used to work as an aide in a nursing home, and the nurses didn't like us using those because they were wrong alot. The arm ones are more accurate.

Cripes, thanks for the warning, this one's going back - think I'll exchange for an arm one - cheers :drinker:
