Have never had to do it when blood pressure is taken. This is so frustratingly difficult to explain. Don't quote me on this. Doctor applies downward pressure that you have to resist as best you can(?)
Reply sounds like could be 1 or 2 other things that may be being tested - that my offering my explanation could mean I fall foul of the site rules.
So instead I'd suggest:
If the doctors are running tests it is not unreasonable to ask for an explanation of what is being tested and why - sometimes this all gets a bit fuzzy because it's done so quick etc.
I figure that if I see someone about my health It's important that they understand - however equally as important that I understand - it being my health after all :-)
