I’ve had one for ages, and use it, but never thought of getting it calibrated! Thanks lots for the prompt.

Never had mine calibrated in years but then I use it more for comparative readings than exact ones.

I never knew that my GP recommended I buy one after my valve repairs and AF. I must admit the consultant raised an eyebrow when I presented him with a chart I took with me to my first checkup. He did keep it though. I will ask the nurse next time I'm at the surgery though. Thank you x
