Wow, thanks for the info. 'Sorry to hear about your neighbor friend! Tragic!
So you infer YOU can test your own INR on demand? What device or method is used? I would be very interested to test mine!

Acelis Health has a little machine that checks your INR just like what someone uses to check blood sugar. Medicare does pay for loaning of the meter and strips. +1-877-354-0395

No @yorlik, I have no wish or tendency to test my own INR. I go to the lab on a schedule recommended by my HMO's Coumadin advisor -- usually once a month, but more often when my INR deviates markedly from 2.5. I think an acquaintance tests his own though. I'll see whether he does and how he does it and let you know. Martin
