I wonder if someone could help me understand a couple of my bp readings on a home bp and pulse machine please!
We have brought a bp and pulse machine, mainly for my husband as he has high bp. When testing it last night at my mums, my bp seemed considerably lower than everyone elses. Whilst everyone elses was around 137/70 something mine was 113/40 something.
So today I thought I would have another go and it was 102/45 in the morning and I did it again just now and it was 112/46. I don't seem to understand the readings, I have tried looking on internet and it appears the top number is normal and the bottom number is really low.
On the bp charts there are no examples of similar bp reading to me, so I have nothing to compare them too.
I would be really greatful if there is someone on PR, who understands it and could explain it to me please?
Thank you all in advance
