Checking your own blood pressure - how to

There is a blood pressure machine available in the waiting room at the surgery, however, many patients monitor their blood pressure at home. This is safe and easy to do - in fact it gives the most accurate readings as they are done in your usual environment. We would strongly encourage this and if you are asked for your blood pressure to be done you can submit the results to us online via econsults, or by replying to the text message we may have sent you. Blood Pressure machines are readily available to buy and cost around £20.

Here is a great guide on how to check your BP at home:
