Hi,
You can buy a large cuff for the talking blood pressure machines. Hope this
helps.

I got one several years ago and yes, it talks but I hate it. It does go on
my arm but the thing squeezes so hard that my arm hurts for days. I have no
idea what to get. The only blind people I personally know who are happy, own
one that goes on the wrist. Big help I am, huh!
But last I heard we didn't have a lot of choices in the arm cuff variety.

I have found the one that is available through the NFB Independence Market
is good. It has a cuff that fits above the elbow and talks you through all
the steps. You can order this only over the phone as the Independence Market
portion of the website is being redesigned and is still not ready. Call
(410) 659-9314 and listen for the option to connect to the Independence
Market.

I believe Independent Living Aids also has a talking blood Pressure monitor.
(sorry, I don't have their number right off hand.

One last place you could try is L S & S Products. Again, I don't have their
number.

Do a Google search for their website and you should be able to find their
numbers there.
