Are you currently self monitoring your INR levels? Would you be willing to share your story? I am looking for success stories to feature on the website and possibly in the next AF Association newsletter. If you would be interested in participating, please email vicki@afa.org.uk with your name and contact details for more information.

I am considering buying Coagucheck on the Internet for around £300. I was informed by my GP yesterday that the NHS in this area does not support self testing. Not impressed :-(
