Just a couple of thoughts - wonder if you are drinking enough water? Are you resting for ten minutes before you take the pressure?
Hi Happyrosie , I drink 2 litres a day plus two or three cups of decaffinated tea
I wait 10 minutes, do a reading, wait another 5 and do a second reading and wait another 5 for a third reading, sat in the same place with the cuff on and back supported. The 3 readings are all very close to each other, for instance tonights were: 153/92, 150/90 & 153/91
Evening reading I always make sure is before evening meal, so it's always taken 4 hours after I've last eaten anything
