On a positive note my knee finally decided to heal almost 100 ℅ today . Took about a month lol i dont know if its the missed dose that helped or what..whatever it was im very happy my knee is about back to normal again : )

I haven't checked my INR in six months , I have no insurance . For the first two years I checked my INR regulary its been exactly the same consistently everytime I went. I do need to check my INR though , hopefully soon.
