RichGotsPots Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 the article says:"The next time you get your blood pressure checked, ask your health provider to take measurements on both arms. Having a difference in readings between arms could indicate a condition called peripheral artery disease, a narrowing of the blood vessels in the arms and legs that restricts blood flow to the heart and raises the risk of a heart attack and stroke."http://bostonglobe.com/lifestyle/health-wellness/2012/01/30/weekly-challenge-check-your-blood-pressure-both-arms/k1dGVXlGgDjNe0qIlQocCK/story.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
