my docs office has been wanting me to bring my new INRatio 2 in to test against their Commercial version INRatio 2 machine.
the nurse stuck my fingar and then put one drop on their machine and then put the second drop on my machine.
their machine said 2.4_____ something...... mine said my inr was 2.9(hers shows pt)
does this sound like a difference inbetween the machines?
or is it possible, that using that second drop from the same stick messed up the reading?
now that i think about it i am a little worried of my inr last week. my machine showed i was at 1.7..... which if it is off by .5 then it would of put me down to 1.2!!!! that is not good!
