[QUOTE="HealthMan, post: 75206, member: 13512"] Spoke to my GP and he thinks the problem i am having is the size of the cuff used at the blood center to measure my blood pressure. I have been lifting weights for almost 2 decades and my arms are pretty muscular > 16.5-17 inches. At my GPs office he uses a large cuff to measure my blood pressure and it is always normal. I have read that undersized cuff can overestimate blood pressure by 10-40 points (thats a lot!) What i will do is buy my own cuff and take with me to the blood center and have them check my blood pressure with it. [/QUOTE]
