Inaccurate pulse readings because of bone plate

[emcnally2535]

i broke my wrist and have a fairly large “T” shaped plate. Daily I would have readings I the low 40”s and upper 30”s. Yes, I was concerned. I had a doctor suggest that I put watch on other wrist. Dah! Why hadn’t I thought of that. Readings in opposite wrist are all normal! I don’t like my watch on that wrist. So I must decide if accurate readings or comfort are more important.

The underside of your wrist is also a possibility, although odd.
