recently got this blood pressure measuring device. operates on 2 AAA sizes batteries. my family has history of high blood pressure and is good that i have this thingy at home so that everyone can make good use of it to monitor their blood pressure movements. very easy to operate. juz need to wrap it around your wrist, press the red operate button and the result will show in approx 1 min.



you can check the previous 20 readings by pressing the memo button. it will show you the date and time of the last 20 readings.


this is my reading for today. it shows the systolic and diastolic reading. healthy range will read at about 130/90 if i'm not wrong. i took my medication in the morning and i took my reading at about 1pm. if i take my reading in the morning when i wake up, the reading will be kinda higher. no wonder it is said that in the morning when you wake up, your blood pressure is the highest. anyway, this device oso indicate your heartbeat rate. i strongly recommend to have one at home for those who have family members suffering from high blood pressure. cos when you are not feeling too well, you can use this to check if you have high or low blood pressure.
