(sigh)
I took back one set already, but didn't dig out the second set from the barn until last week. They're still in the back of my car. Guess I need to take a look at the replacements I got a few weeks ago to see if they need to go back as well.

Interesting day. Showed Dr my BP readings for the last 3 months. He liked what I showed him. But nurses test said 147/88. Went home and picked up my machine. Did BP again with there and my machine. Same readings as above. Took my BP again when I got home. 115/74. Not sure what is going on. Dr is going get back with me after blood test come back.

Your more relaxed at home? Sometimes. You are stressed at the docs. Is the difference that worrisome to the Doc?

Ron .. I had similar situation. At my annual physical in September 2018 the nurse took my BP on arrival and results were similar to yours. My Doc was a bit concerned but said we'd just watch it and suggested coming in weekly for a check. I went home and ordered an OMRON 10 on Amazon for $50 and started recording my BP first thing every morning before first coffee. Sent Doc first two weeks results and subject was dropped. I sent him 60 days readings, before my 2019 physical.

I now record my BP once a week but .. will do daily for about a month prior to my next physical in September.

Not yet. I want to get off all BP meds using the data I provided. So far everyone I have taken has a side effect for me.

Good luck Ron.

The weather "smart kids" predicted a high of 91° for us today .. it's already 95° / feels like 103°.

I got a email from HF today. The replacement 6 ton models are also failing. Email offered that you can return any jack stand bought from HF if you are afraid of them for a full refund. Even the 12 ton ones. No question asked. I have 4 sets of jack stands. Only one set is HF. Older style made out of angle iron and bar stock.

Sophie experiences what they call “white coat” bp. Often elevated in the Dr office. Years ago when 1st noticed she had to go to neighborhood firestation for daily checks for a week and prove Dr with the readings. We didn’t have own cuff. Sometimes a delay in Dr ofc would help. Sometimes I think traffic was a factor as well.
