Hi Val: Very interesting. If I test anywhere between 2.0 to 2.9
I'm in the clear. Tony's range of 3.0 to 4.5 would have the phlebotomist
driving me nuts. <g> I take 5 mgs of warfarin daily. The night before
I have an appointment I take a half. It's a trick that works 99% of the
time. I'm a polite old guy most of the time. I know it's hard to believe. :)
The warfarin clinic is the only place that I have the personality of a
Tasmanian
Devil. Nobody knows squat in that place. "Eat greens for vitamin K. Don't
eat to many greens we don't want you to get to much vitamin K.

I guess The UK or America we are all in the same boat. Good luck to Tony.
They will drive him mad but in the end everything will be straight & like
Bettyann
you will end up with the headache. :-))
