A member asked:
Could i ask a nurse or my gp about blood pressure?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
BP: Nurses are medical professionals and receive their level of training, general practitioners receive a higher degree of training and specialists yet another level of training. You can ask any professional questions and they can give you answers commensurate with their knowledge level. In general asking your gp medical questions is a good idea.
