A member asked:
My bp is 118/126.what are the risks for this result?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Check and repeat: That 118/126 is not a valid blood pressure number. One can check her equipment and technique to make sure all is correct. Then, when relaxed, one can take a measurement from each arm (assuming there is no medical reason to avoid blood pressure checks on a particular arm, such as prior arm surgery). Results should have a larger number on top than on the bottom.
