    My problem is that medical staff can get a normal reading when I'm on BP meds. As soon as I leave the doctors office, the BP plummets. Which means on BP meds my reading is typically too low. Without them, I'm fine until I visit a doctor. Then it only spikes while I'm there. So if I take BP meds. I risk my heart stopping because it brings my BP down too low. So I could take BP meds to pass the test but risk dieing the rest of the time.

    I have the same thing, just relax your arm as much as you can. Like it is dead.

    There is a section on here call The Ladies Room. There are threads in there that cover that topic. Can tell you how guys handle that , but half would not apply. Think the are a few threads in there about personal protection .

    Totally relax your whole body and mind. take deep breaths and slowly exhale through your nose.

    I don't know if a fit bit or similar device monitors BP. Maybe showing a Dr this would help.
