My wife bought a wrist one and she showed me to use it the other way. Well I knew my B.P. wasn't 187over 98. So I checked out your tutorial. Thank you. Now I'm at 127/80 at 68 yrs. Also I get to teach her something she didn't know which will be a joy.

Thank you so much! I lost the instructions to my wrist monitor so I have been putting it on the wrong way. Sooo much anxiety over the very high readings! So high I thought maybe I should go to the ER. Then is saw your video abd put it on correctly. The numbers changed substantially. I will triple check for accuracy. Subscribed.

I am 29, 165 lbs. when I visit the doctor my BP sits around 153-83. At home it is about 140-80. I believed I’m in stage one from chronic stress and drug abuse. I have been sober now for 5 years but struggle still with blood pressure. I know I should exercise more but I am very active at work. I also eat fairly well. I am also taking magnesium supplements and things to try and get all my nutrients. Is there a timeline of how fast one can fix the pressure ? Is there a possibility I have permanently damaged my body to where I now need med ? I’m so terrified of taking blood pressure meds !!!

I have the.Omron 6100 which doesn’t have the heart level indicator, and I was wondering if I can use it the way you used it in your video, by putting it against my chest, even though it doesn’t say to do it that way in the manual. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you so much, Peter.

When you say it’s less accurate, is it consistently lower, consistently higher, or is it inconsistently incorrect (sometimes higher, sometimes lower, or the ratio different)? If it’s consistent, it could be “calibrated” to a regular monitor, but if it’s inconsistent, it’s probably not that useful. It would be nice to have one that didn’t hurt though.

Why do the instructions on my BP cuff advise I lean my left elbow on my desk at my heart level,, and keep the machine flush with the bottom of my wrist, not aligned with my thumb? When I measure my BP the way instructions advise I get normal readings, but when I measure the way you show in this video I get abnormal readings. Any advice?

@lizhart901 2 жыл бұрын
To find out, go to a drugstore with a blood pressure chair and take a reading. Then take 2 readings with your own cuff, following the 2 sets of instructions and compare to the machine. If you can do this on your doctor's office, so much the better. I would expect that the ones that came with the machine are accurate.

They are probably taking it without you relaxing first. Seems intentional to me. Every body is different- if you are a runner your BP would be lower than someone who moderately exercises, as well as non excerciser. The industry is continuing to lower what they deme as normal range. It's all about money and Pharma Blood pressure is suppose to fluctuate throughout the day. Most of the time a person is mineral deficient. Get your minerals they regulate your complete nervous system. Do you feel jittery, nervous, brain fog, confusion, anxiousness, sadness, constipation...Mineral Deficient = Dehydration

I struggle with migraines. I eat on a strict schedule. My brain seams to like the homeostasis thing. I eat a healthy portion of protein with each meal. Sometimes I miss a meal or am late to a meal and presumably my glucose drops and a little while later I get a migraine. Also if I overexert myself I get one as well. Will a BP monitor help me catch or prevent migraine? Have you heard of anyone doing this? My neurologist wants to talk about the brain, not food. He's really good at his job but maybe too focused. Any wisdom for me?

Very helpful, thanks, have a question though: I had already ordered a wrist monitor (yet to arrive) after which I found out it's not as accurate as the arm one, which would be more helpful: after getting its reading, to go to the pharmacy and have it checked with the arm monitor to find out the difference in readings then add (or subtract) that every time I use the wrist monitor? Or, should I consider the average of both readings to be the accurate one? Thanks loads!

Hi have. A pacemaker and I do have irregular heartbeat at times I have been using a blood pressure monitor at home and it's been high 151/75 but when I took it into the drs my dr said the blood pressure monitor can't pick up the irregular heartbeats and this as why my blood pressure is reading high and inconsistenty when using the one at the drs which is the manual version and calibrated my blood pressure reads 130/85 but he saids with the one I have it as trouble detecting the presence of the mis beat I'm sort of conserned as I don't know who to believe as when my partner uses the same monitor her reading is normal but mine is high and low it's all over the place I'm on a blood pressure tablet which a different Dr put me on before I seen a different Dr I'm Very fit for my age very active as well I can walk very well up long high hills without any major issues I walk 4 to 5 miles a day at pace as well I'm thin build normal BMI I used to have a drink but stopped about 4 months ago when I first considerd having high blood pressure I don't smoke is there a blood pressure monitor out there for these types of heart beats or should I not carry on using the one I have thanks tom uk

You can only recharge it; there is no option for replacing the batteries, although the voice you ask you to "replace" the batteries!!

Why is the left arm more accurate? I only Have the wrist monitor, and my readings are always higher on my right wrist than my left wrist. My left forearm is also visibly vascular and I barely see any vascular it’s in my right forearm.

You can look that up online. But why does it matter to you? Use the left wrist like the instructions always say to.They say the right is less accurate, so don't use it.

The other thing is you should watch some of the videos with actual doctors that demonstrate and talk about the wrist one they point out you really shouldn’t bend your arm because it pinches the artery in the artery is smaller but that’s one is reading off of so your information is not correct

@AdamJStoryDC 4 жыл бұрын
The instructions on the wrist monitor is to put your wrist near your heart. You'll have to ask a doctor how to do that without bending your elbow.

You should probably re-watch your other video when you took the blood pressure of the lady and then yourself actually your automatic blood pressure reading what is the highest of them all the wrist and the old school method was the most accurate yet you’re saying in this video the wrist is not as accurate as the self one

The "old school" one is the best, but it takes skill to do it and you can't do it yourself. Also, you can't have a doctor that has limited hearing. Ha Ha

These instructions are incorrect for every wrist machine I have used. Follow the instructions that came with your machine. Why do it a different way? His advice of putting it on the thumb bone is very strange and aligns with no advice I've ever received from any doctor - it must be specific to this machine in the video. Read the instructions, don't need youtube for that.

You're supposed to relax when taking bp. Can't relax when I'm having to hold my arm across my chest. I don't think this guy knows what he is talking about. Have to follow instructions that came with your wrist monitor if you are going to use it. I personally don't like them. Not very accurate.

The wrist monitors are a joke. Very tricky to get accurate reading. I have arm cuff. More accurate. Also my doctor checks bp manually. The electronic bp machine at heart doctor always hurts, squeezes too tight and always gives a ridiculous high reading.
