Hey guys, quick question...
I’ve noticed I always get different blood pressure readings between my left and right arm.
Today I measured both at the same time: the left arm is always about 15–20 mmHg higher on the systolic side.
The diastolic pressure is identical on both arms.
Example:
Left: 135–142 / 70
Right: 115–120 / 70
When I was in the hospital about six months ago and also during my sports medical checkup, I had around 145/80, so that seems to be my usual range.
I’m otherwise extremely healthy, train regularly, and have no symptoms — just wondering if this asymmetry means anything or if it’s something to worry about.

And you'll see that if you mesure standing with the arm at your sides or the arm above the head there is also a change 
Takes to the left arm with the sensor at the same level of the heart.
