The reason wrist monitors supposedly aren't as good as those that go on your upper arm has everything to do with where your heart is. I guess you want the monitor level with your heart so if you can measure your BP with your wrist level with your heart then it is perfect. I assure you, the wrist model is probably much less of a pain in the ass to secure correctly around your arm than mine is. Same brand as well.

That's exactly why the instructions for wrist monitors tell you to put your arm across your chest like you're saying the 'Pledge of Allegiance'. The monitor actually won't even begin to take your blood pressure until it's in the right position (at heart level).

New bed for penny. She's a dachshund so the bed length is handy when she doesn't go into donut mode.

A TWSBI Diamond 580 with a 1.5 mm nib and a Vac 700 with a 1.1 mm nib. These are great pens for the money.

It makes me :mad: that you won't explain it to me. I think I'm smart enough to comprehend it. :rolleyes:

Bought this locally. Just needs a screen and a home button which are already on order. I also picked up a tool kit at Frys
