what arm should you take blood pressure on
Left arm vs. right arm blood pressure question 9/15/2005 10:28PM. Reply. Return to Index. Report Post. They usually take it on the left arm, and they say that is where you should take it, but then at the doctor they will take it on the right if they want to verify the reading they got on the left. I don't understand? I take my BP on my left arm. Lately, the upper one is slightly high to high and the lower one is normal. I take it on my right arm.
