What is the difference between taking ur blood pressure in ur upper left arm and lower left arm and is it higher or lower than the reading?
Took blood pressure in my left arm 117/77 but when I took my blood pressure on my right arm it was 124/87. Why the difference?
My left and right arms have the same diastolic BP, but systolic BP in right arm always ~15mmHg higher than left. When under stress (e.g. pulse 135bpm), the difference between R/L systolic BP increases to 27mmHg. Why? Is it significant?
I always have aroubd a 10 point difference in systolic readings between my arms. Is that normal. My readings this morning were left 114 sys, 68 Dia, 98 pulse.... Right 107 sys, 62dia, 103 pulse.... I'm currently being treated for hypertension?
