@cmael @rosemarya I actually do not record mine, I just take it to see how it is doing. My doctor has never mentioned wanting me to record it. When I am home it's always pretty good, but I guess high for today's standards -- systolic in the 130s, and diastolic in the high 60s. I am dreading my appointment tomorrow.

My PCP used to ask me to jot down a few numbers between my 6 month check ups with him. But it is my Kidney transplant team who is keeping a close watch. I only see them tyearly, so they gave me the small booklet. I will return it at my annual visit.
My PCP has been working with me when my BP meds were giving me trouble after the Kidney folks made a change. He is my GoTo person, but he knows that the Kidney (and Liver) get priority treatment.
