Looks good to me too. You must be relieved that it is stabilizing.

Pleased yours is ok as well, do you use self testing? Be happy :-)

in reply to Christo4

I don't, though I was wondering about buying a machine. They're expensive but I was thinking it might be a good idea, what do you think?

Wishing you happiness too :)

Thought about It myself, at the moment it's no problem to go to my Dr's & let the nurse do it, so I shall see how I go.

Take care.

Keep Calm and carry on ...... looks good, similar to my readings years ago when I first went down this road. You do have to be patient though - I think (from memory) I was about 5 weeks before I got to target of 2.5 and then I had to hold it for a couple of weeks. Then I fronted up for cardioversion only to find my heart had reverted to normal sinus rythmn all on its own and they kicked me out. Warfarin for life now - no sweat.

Good luck,

Aussie John
