I picked up a OMRON BP monitor for $2 at a thrift store today.
I figured I would test it on myself.

My BP is

117 Systolic
83 Diastolic
94 pulse

Is this normal range? Anyone know
 
Sit down for about 5 minutes in an upright position and then check it relaxed.
 
Hell uv a lot better than mine :eek::biggrin:
 
120/70 is normal.
A pulse of 60-100 bpm is normal.
But a resting pulse in the low 60's is very good.
The longer you can keep your bp at 120/70 the better.

Pulse is high should be in the 60-80 range!!
 
LOL I just re-read it and you bought a $2 blood pressure monitor :biggrin:
 
Pulse does seem high, wait until the excitement of your $2 thrift store find wears off, check it again & post results;)
 
Yeah and make sure the inflatable pump thingy is only on your arm. :eek::p:biggrin:
 
Going to make money on selling it on Ebay=high pulse.
 
You have nothing to worry about with that blood pressure if it is accurate.
120/80 is normal.
Mine has been high for quite some time although the doctor says it's ok when he checks it.
I usually am in the 140/90s range when i check it, i was told i do not drink enough water which raises blood pressure.
Being a bachelor it's hard to eat good all the time and i need to cut down on coffee i suppose.......

Coffee I love & prolly had some b4 testing. Pulse was high i thought too. but then again it could have been coffee or asperin i may have had both at same time....
or maybe it was the THRILL of being home alone. while the rest of the family was at school or work. I love that ALONE time...

When Spring ends or snow is gone by JULY I cant wait to go golfing.
