If I can buy a hearing aid, without a prescription? If so, where from and how much are they likely to be?

I also want to buy a blood pressure monitor, the new wrist kind.

They are not actually for me, they are for a friend of mine who is travelling to Northern Iraq and wants to buy those things here and take them over, as medical supplies are difficult to get there.

I think you can just get them over the counter (so to speak) in chemists.

The wrist ones are not entirely accurate and are rone to giving false readings. Best to try and get hold of one that is placed on the arm.
