Description of Event or Problem · 0

I PURCHASED A WALGREENS BLOOD PRESSURE MONITOR AFTER MY DOCTOR DIAGNOSED ME WITH HYPERTENSION. I HAVE BEEN USING IT FOR SEVERAL MONTHS AND ASSUMED IT WAS ACCURATE. ON 2 OCCASIONS WITH THE DELUXE WRIST BLOOD PRESSURE MONITOR I WAS GETTING SEVERAL LOW READINGS 90 OVER 50 ETC. I WENT TO THE (B)(6) YESTERDAY AND MY BLOOD PRESSURE WAS 130 OVER 70. I CAME HOME AND USED THE WALGREENS DEVICE AND IT WAS 100/50 15 MINUTES LATER. I BELIEVE IT IS DANGEROUS FOR PEOPLE TO BE USING THESE MONITORS AND NOT REALIZING THEY COULD HAVE SERIOUS HEART PROBLEMS. THIS IS THE SECOND MONITOR I HAVE BOUGHT AND THEY BOTH HAVE THE SAME ISSUES. REFERENCE REPORT #MW5166183.
