I picked up my INRatio2 machine from my GP yesterday. Yesterday was my 90th day on warfarin, so now I can call in results. (I'm using the Philips service). While at the doctor's office, my meter was used to test INR - 2.5.
I'm the first for the GP to do home testing. NP wants me to test tomorrow (Friday) and email her the result, then test Wednesday to actually start home testing and calling in the result.
I have checked with Philips to see when they expect the first test. Based on previous conversations with Philips, I believe they will remind you to call in a reading if you go past one week. I know they expect weekly test.
What say the jury?

What say the jury?
- Test Friday - only give NP result.
- Test Friday - give NP and Philips result
- Wait a few days longer
