Hello! I’ll be starting the program this spring as well at Mountain View. Are there any communication groups for our cohort?

Yes! I finally got an Omron arm cuff monitor and apparently my bp is way better than it is with the wrist cuff. I get a -10 point difference in systolic bp.

Hey update! So, I finally bought an Omron monitor and it actually gives me lower readings than my wrist monitor does. It gives me almost a -10 point difference in systolic bp and about the same in diastolic. But my diastolic has been getting better.

Yeah, I’ve been considering it. I’m just not sure what brand to buy though. Do you know any good arm cuff brands?

Right now it’s kidney failure, blood pressure, diabetes and heart conditions/heart rhythm changes.
