Teppy, when they take your b.p., do they use the regular cuff, or do they get out the bigger cuff? We've got a resident who will ready 200/98 with a regular cuff and 170/80 with the bigger one. I know I have to ask for one when I'm at the doctor's, and that woman has way smaller arm circumference than I have. Not that it changes the fact that your b.p. is higher than it used to be, but it may well not be as high as you think.
