A blood pressure check takes a few minutes.

High blood pressure can cause tinitus, although it's one of the less common causes: http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Tinnitus/Pages/Causes.aspx




It may take a few minutes but getting a doctor's appointment takes a much longer - not to mention a lot of determination.

Thanks for the link though, I may just have a try at getting an appointment again before the year is out.


Pharmacies (In the UK) can give blood pressure tests.


So can many of those in the US. Hypertension isn't something to be taken lightly, especially given how easy it is to test for.


Thanks, I should have known that.
