Today, I told my boyfriend the dentist said my blood pressure was high. He was more interested in the fact that the dentist took my blood pressure than my blood pressure being high. FML

To be fair, its never happened to me or anyone I know, so I can relate to his shock.

Well I've never heard of a dentist who takes people's blood pressure either.

This made me laugh way harder than it should have.

That was my first thought. I had no idea that dentists would take blood pressure

My dentist did the same, and it showed so high I shouldn't be alive. It is their crappy equipment and lack of knowledge. I have it measured regularly and otherwise it has always been normal.

What type of dentist do you go to to measure your blood pressure? /:

I've never had my blood pressure taken by the dentist or heard of anybody else withy that experience so I understand where your BF Is coming from

I had to reread the FML because I thought I misread it. What kind of a dentist takes blood pressure?

One who's about to put your under for oral surgery? Dentists are doctors, they know how to use a blood pressure cuff.

I'm actually surprised about that too. I've never had my blood pressure taken while at the dentist. Things are different everywhere though.

They take mine at the dentist before doing work ever since the heart attack. Mine usually is on the low end of normal range. It's always high when they take it.
