The thing should arrive tomorrow, will let you know if I can find any bp at allYou might find, in an ideal world, you might run short of hands, bearing in mind one arm will be in the cuff, your other operating the bulb/valve and the third, holding the stethoscope in situ.
No third hand? You may need to find someone to play Doctors and Nurses with.
Three months to work it out. What do you think, will I find someone if I put an add in the local newspaper? Wanted: play-doctor to take blood pressure.

That's what I read on the google. By the time I manage to get any reading at all I can always ask a friend to do the left handed part and compare the readings with when I do it myself. That should tell me if it worksYou should be able to manage a rreading on your own, but your posture won't be rright, due to all the angles you'll have to create to do it.
Assuming you're right handed, use the cuff on your left arm, and use your right hand to find your pulse in the crook of your elbow. Pump the bulb with your left hand, until the pulse stops (note the number), then your leeft had rreleases the valve on the bulb with you listening for the pulse in your arm restarting. The stopping and starting of your pulse are your two readings.
Using your left hand will likely impact your readings, and maybe quite a bit, but you'll have fun.

Love it! I think I'll go find the 'blip in the liquid' at my neighours' first, thoughblip in the liquid
And who needs sleep anyway!Warm booze is better than no booze...
Thanks for the advice but it didn't work. We've tried to find the blip in the liquid but instead found the bottom of the bottle of warm booze between the three of us. Now 4:40am and in bed with a snack and amazed I can't find any typo's in above text.Night all. Don't stay up too late @Antje77
My suggestion is to look on line for a contortionist to teach you now to work your new toy !!Thanks for the advice but it didn't work.

See you guys tomorrow somewhere in the late afternoon, love you!
Hope all goes well.I will be signing off some time today for a few days. Big move day tomorrow, no Wifi from some time today and my phone has a small screen and small keyboard that make typing difficult. BT has promised to have it all up and running by Thursday, but we shall see. Busy, busy, busy.

I did almost buy a Aneroid Sphygmomanometer but I knew if I did I'd never get the stethoscope back off my grandson.Too late now! I get to play with the stethoscope. And yours was probably more expensive than mine too.
