I have high blood pressure and take 2 medications. I was told that it is better to buy a Home blood pressure monitor than checking it at the store which I did. I purchased the Omron HEM 780 supposedly the best about $73. Now this morning my BP at home was 129/86. I went to the store wait 2mn and the store BP monitor gaves me 153/103. I wait 3 mn and it gives me 144/94 , I walk come back and it gives me 135/98 , I rest for 3 mn and it gives me 126/96. What should I trust? My Home BP monitor? I just got home and my BP monitor gives me a 135/95. I am VERY worries and this is starting to get on my nerves as I am having too many discrepancies between store and home monitors. At the doctor office 3 weeks ago it was 130/86. Thanks for your time :
