The true way to do BP is lie in a dark room, unattended for 30 minutes...
When has that every happened, never. A 24 yo medical assistant rolls a cart in, puts on a cuff that may be too small for the arm you have, read it.
The home units are quite accurate like you say. My only concern is when office reading high doc may pile on RX. I have done meditation and lowered mine significantly. Good luck with navigating your health care.
