It is not a question of the latest model of Omron. It is a question of your being tense and worried in the hospital. If you want to get a perfect reading of BP it is better to do your BP recording three times a day (6 AM,  4PM and 10 PM). That will be a reliable method.

White coat hypertension may have been the reason for the rise in your blood pressure at the hospital.While using the digital BP instrument,Take 3 readings 1 minute apart , consider the average of the last 2 readings .reduction of the weight depends on your lifestyle and food habits .With 30 minutes of exercise daily and some diet modifications you should be able to shed weight.
