Patients Voice Group. Decided on balance to chose warfarin until a further a couple of years have tested alternatives. I self monitor and find it much easier and reassuring that inr within recommended limits. If anyone is considering self monitoring please do not hesitate to contact me if you require my personal experience of this equipment. Beano J.

I'll second that! Nice to see your pink carnation. I remember you saying you'd just been recorded.

Well done Rosemary. I'm with you on self testing.
