[Electronics-Talk] Talking Blood pressure monitor, any suggestions?

[amcarr1 at verizon.net]

We bought the QardioArm blood pressure monitor directly from the company.
If the link I provided in my previous message does not work, just do a
google search for Qardio Arm.  I do not know if it works on any other smart
phone platform.  If you do not want to be reliant on your smart phone, then
this is not the device for you.  

There are stand-a-lone talking blood pressure monitors from a number of
sources.  These devices are barebones and some speak out more than the blood
pressure reading.  I still have a monitor of this type.  If you elect to go
with this type of unit, get one that measures your blood pressure from the
top of your, not from other parts of your body.

HTH,
Annette
