Retinal hemorrhage: I have seen a patient who had not high blood pressure as measured in her arms because she had hardening of the arteries to both arms thus lowering the measured pressure in both arms to normal. Which her aortic pressure was over 200. More likely causes are DM, taking aspirin, or warfarin, or have low platelets.
