I've had it for 7 or 8 years and I don't trust it at all. Unfortunately I don't have a medical professional in my house to give me accurate readings.

Woke up one morning and didn’t think it was a big deal, told her I felt really tired and was going back to bed. She grabbed my wrist and took my pulse. After a few seconds, she said I’m going to the ER. What? Got there and my pulse was 26 BPMs and very weak. I got out a few days later with a pacemaker.

two months tomorrow. Lived together for 5 years.
Another time she got me to the ER when wouldn’t have gone on my own. At first they thought it was Covid. 3 negative test and found out it was sepsis. Much more deadly than Covid and early treatment saved me.

You hit the jackpot when you met her! Insisted go husband to ER Sunday. His has COPD that is usually manageable. Started with cough that wouldn’t stop and then trouble breathing. They admitted him and turns out he has influenza A and para influenza. Finally he started improving yesterday and big progress overnight. Fingers crossed he goes home tomorrow or Sunday. All the blast of meds dramatically took his short term memory loss to full on confusion but that too has really improved this morning! Yippee! Wives rock, haha!

I think we’ve had nutrition/ food exchanges. What they call a heart healthy diet includes bacon and eggs! I’ve eaten enough salad, roasted potatoes and garden burger to last for years!

find her until I gave up looking..

of discovering that the digital thing they wheel in was consistently 10+/- points higher than either their manual cuff or the setup I use at home.

For some reason???

They seem to be completely unreliable.

but they can be fussy to position properly and should be taken in on a doctor visit to test against a wall unit in the office.
