WHY BLOOD PRESSURE CUFF SIZE IS IMPORTANT....

If you use a cuff that is too small, the resulting blood pressure reading will be too high. And if you use a cuff that is too large, the resulting blood pressure reading will be too low. This is very serious in the sense that if the cuff is too small,  you will be incorrectly diagnosed with high blood pressure. As a result, you will be taking in medications which may have negative effects on your body. On the other hand, if your blood pressure is high and goes undiagnosed because of the use of large cuff, it may lead to damage blood vessels, stroke and heart attack. It is advisable to insist on the correct cuff size to your arm when your blood pressure is being checked.

LEARN FROM MY MISTAKE......

I realized that this cigarette addiction was really defeating me, but I couldn’t control it. I lived for cigarette and imagined dying with a cigarette. But just one day I took a bold decision to quit smoking after losing my property and my only daughter due to a house fire which started with my careless cigarette smoking. It was very horrible and I don’t want to talk about it. I wish to turn back the hands of time and save my innocent baby. But it’s too late now for me but not for you. I hope my experience help you change. Life is too short and it seems such a waste to pay a cigarette company to kill you slowly. Get assistance from a clinical psychologist and you will go through quitting successfully.                                                ...
