[QUOTE="medvetz63, post: 117148, member: 3175"] I have also discovered that the position of my arm causes changes in blood pressure readings. If l take my BP with my arm hanging down the side of my body the reading will be slightly high, like 130/80 but when my arm is resting on a table at the level of my heart the reading is always fantastic, like 118/65, and lo and behold I have read several articles recently that say that having the arm resting at heart level while BP is taken is the ONLY way it should be done for the most accurate results.
