When To Measure Your Blood Pressure
Measure your blood pressure after five to ten minutes of rest, while seated.
Keep your arm at the level of your heart.
Don't, drink anything that will stimulate your blood pressure.
Do not smoke for at least fifteen minutes before measuring your blood pressure.
If you are over 65 years of age, your blood pressure should be measured both when you are standing and when you are sitting.
Remember your blood pressure readings differ in the evenings, and during the winter months. Also you may get a measurement of lower value in the mornings during the summer months.
It is recommended that you do your measuring for at least three consecutive days and write down these reading on your printed blood pressure chart. This way it will be easier for you to observe any minor or major changes in your blood pressure levels.
