my blood pressure home machine has old batteries in it, will that make a difference to the reading?

Hi Kathleen. If they haven't run low they should be OK as long as they don't sound like they're struggling to inflate the cuff, but just to make sure, I would replace them anyway so that you can be sure of an accurate reading.
