Ok—great. I did wonder about the batteries, but not experienced enough to know for sure. Will take care of this ASAP. Sheenas7—I bought my meters separately from any services. It was approx. $1,800 for the meter & only a handful of strips w. the actual services. I bought a meter and 48...

The last three times I have tested my initial attempt beeps and reads Error 8. I turn the meter off & turn back on & reinsert strip—and all is well. I looked at a CoaguChek PDF online, but wasn’t really informed of what a potential problem would be. Just wondering if anyone else has had this...

Like the poster above, I also still have my post-surgery pacer wires in. The surgeons told me that after being on Coumadin for about 11 days (that’s how long I stayed in hospital post-op.) that it would have been too risky to pull them. I was told a resounding NO to any MRI’s due to these...

Exactly! What he said☝️😉.

Ummm, since I was the one dealing directly with her—and witnessed her clear stubbornness & patronizing way despite how many studies I referenced—I think I would far more able to ascertain her character than you. You actually make my very point above. They often rely on outdated...

Just saw these posts for some reason. Yes, I have indeed found that different fingers tend to yield differing results. For ex., for a long time I used a pinkie finger. It did well for a while, but then, for reason I started having problems getting a large enough drop—so I switched to the...

Okay—got it. Think I will check with my Coumadin clinic before trying this. Much appreciated👍.

Okay—not to belabor the point, but I started looking at K-2 (I already have a ton of D-3 gel caps), but I noticed the warning to consult with a Dr., especially if taking warfarin. As you can view in the link below this product also warns to make sure & stop taking the K-2 two weeks prior to...

Thank you Katherine. Planning to spend some time this week researching some of these apps. I don’t mind spending the $$ if they really work. Protimenow—your concept of envisaging relaxing scenarios is very intriguing. I used to really try to practice that for help sleeping...and I do recall...

Thank you both—very helpful input. I will definitely check into the app. mentioned above. As I stated earlier—I can certainly tell when I get majorly stressed out. My shortness of breath is FARRR more pronounced & I just feel generally compromised constitution-wise.

I started reading this book tonight: https://www.amazon.com/Sinatra-Solution-Metabolic-Cardiology/dp/1591202914 This (well known) cardiologist mentions how important a positive mind is in conjunction with the supplements he touts (CoQ10 as hydrosoluble ubiquinone, D-Ribose, Broad Spectrum...

Wow—soooo promising!

Exactly my thoughts as well. This forum has *LITERALLY* been a life-saver for me (long story). I also think about Pell & others who have had 3 OHS. I may be looking at a third myself if things don’t improve—and EVERY-TIME I think about it the first thought I have is ALWAYS “Don’t think I can...

Thank you men. Appreciate all that y’all have ever done to assist in your excellent input.

Got it. Now on to Amazon to locate their best seller😳👍.
