High bp in manual machine

2022-11-19 17:11:39
Since I have bp issues monitoring in home. Both in omron and dr foremen are showing similar readings like 120-130/75-84. But when I check in hospital it is always like 150/90 or 160/80. In hospital used different machines and different staffs and checked for accuracy it was same high reading but when coming home and checked it is always less. Is both the digital meter wrong ?
