Missing blood test due to travelling

2018-12-09 02:05:33
I take acitrom 3 mg daily. I am having a mechanical alrtic valve. I missed my pt inr test due to travelling and repeated it after 8 weeks. Now the pt inr has shown low valve of 1.3. Previously it was in range of 2.0. Will it impact a lot? I am worried

Yes definitely and you must know that. Your INR is much below they level for your condition. Try to uptitrate it and repeat. Consult with specialist without delay.
