Hi everyone, how are you feeling today?

If you're living with high blood pressure or another heart-related condition, keeping track of your blood pressure at home can be a helpful way to manage your health between appointments.

  • Do you use a home blood pressure monitor (tensiometer)?
  • If so, how often do you check your numbers, and do you track them in a notebook or app?
  • Do you have any tips or habits that help you keep your blood pressure steady?

Whether you’ve been managing hypertension for years or just starting out, your routine could really help others in the community.

Take care,

Just been put on medication for this. I'm being controlled by my GP at the moment until it settles down.
