Does Any Heart Problem Cause Instrumental Error While Checking BP Readings?

Question: I went to the obgyn and lately when they take my blood pressure the readings won't come on the monitor. I think it reads error or cod something like that. she said it doesn't do that to everyone else. I just had a myomectomy last Wednesday and the whole time I was in there they didn't have this problem,jUst when I go to this particular Dr office. since this only happens to me so the nurse said,does this mean somethings wrong with me. I do want to add that today after she keep changing the cuffs out she finally got a reading
Brief Answer:
Instrumental error likely.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
Not getting the reading on monitor can be due to an instrumental error. Since you do not have any symptoms like palpitation, headache, sweating, etc and at last the nurse was able to record your blood pressure, there is no need to worry.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
