Hello everyone We have found out and been on there website to check, the company CoaguChek who make the selftesting INR machines are going on tour all around the uk and ireland! Also there is talk that the machines will be offered at a reduced rate at the events, which is amazing news. This is a link to there website, so you can find out where your nearest location will be, we will be going to the Rayleigh one in essex. http://www.coaguchek.com/uk/bustour/ You still need to check with your local gp's to see if they will give the strips and chip needed for the machine, but if there are cheaper and you want one, we advise you to go. Take care, Love Jayne and Greg x
