Best Blood Pressure Machines - High & Low Blood Pressure Message Board

MissLawanna · 08-20-2004, 11:47 AM

I had the names of various blood pressure machines most popular by board members but have lost my bookmark.

I believe ZuZu was the one that listed them.

Would appreciate info as the one I've been using has quit working properly. It was the LifeSource brand and I've never been too pleased with it (I was a newbie when I bought it and plent dumb....still am :-).

By the way, I live in Cape Coral, Fl. so did get a good scare from Charley...we have no damage but the whole surrounding areas are disasterous where hurricane really hit.

No power or phone for seven days....heat and humidity was terrible.....moved here from CA and can't decide which is scarier earthquake vs hurricane.....do get warnings on hurricanes.

I use an OMRON Digital Monitor Model # HEM-432C.

I know Zuzu uses an OMRON also, but believe a different model #.

I wouldnt know the difference between the two, mine does the BP and pulse and keeps a log of 15 readings.

I have an Omron to. I think it's a very accurate monitor.

I have OMRON HEM-711 Digital. Just had it checked at doctors today. He said it was close enough, although it was few points higher than what he got. He got 110/76, the machine got 116/83.

Hey!

When it comes to facing the high winds and rains of a hurricane, I'll pick the earthquakes and take my chances!

Glad to see your back online and hope everything gets back to normal soon!

To others, how much do the OMRON's cost?
