Additional Feature

hi,

I checked many on line solutions for BP logging and found this one to be quiet useful.

One feature I found missing is support for multiple logs. One person can have only one log as of now.

For example my Doc has guided me to monitor my BP in lying down position and in standing position as my BP is low in standing.

Also there should be option whether you are taking reading of right arm or left arm. This data is also helpful in monitoring as right BP is normally a bit higher than left arm BP.

I think these can be good improvements.

Thanks,
Vipin

Both are ideas worth thinking about. While left/right arm is pretty easy to implement and shouldn't make the interface much more complicated, I can't say the same about the 'multiple logs'. I know it's not an ideal solution, but how about creating a separate account (preferably using another web browser, so you won't have to log in/out all the time).

Wow - I really love this site - simple to use and a nice, clean design.

I have tended to avoid taking my blood pressure but being able to better see the patterns makes it kind of fun.

One of those patterns is the left/right arm results. My left is consistently lower than my right, possibly because I play some hard-hitting tennis a few times each week.

Since I am apparently having some issues with low pulse rate, including "pulse pressure" would be a nice addition.

I may make it private later, but for now this is my public chart/table/comments.

Another nice-to-have feature to add might be an 'event' line with the date and time but without the blood pressure entries.

I would use this to indicate what BP medication I took at a certain time, what what meal I ate that might affect BP, or any particular problem event (panic attack, pain, etc.) that happened.

All good suggestions, lvzardoz. Thank you :).
I hope I'll manage to get enough free time to work on BP chart next month.

Adding your suggestions to the ToDo list.

Excellent tool. Would be nice to have an export feature so I can print my graphs from Excel.
