Just as I said previously, it was like a cattle call, run 'em in and run 'em out. The only thing that I insisted on was that she place the cuff on open skin and not over my shirt. She first tried the right arm and registered 153, which was not a surprise to me. Then she immediately tried the left arm which registered 130. Despite my protestations that I had been monitoring my BP's for awhile and that all of my readings were well below 120/80, she ignored me. It wasn't until I actually was able to review all of my documentation with the Dr. who actually tested me last year and remembered me, was I able to make my case. I showed him that I followed his advice and lost 48 lbs and my BP was way down from the previous year of 145. This time he took my BP with his symgmomometer (sp ?) and he concurred that I was in much better shape and that he would approve my license for the regular 2 years. VICTORY! As far as the weight is concerned, they only registered me 4 lbs more than I really am. Again, upon telling her of this, she ignored me. I know that I made her mad because, me a non-professional, telling a nurse how to do her job, even though her readings were incorrect, only made things worse. Oh well, since this will be my last time to do this, Hallelujah and thank God it's over. Thanks for the input. I do appreciate the helpful info. Sincerely, Ernest Villarreal, Euless, Tx.
