What Is The Normal INR Value?

What is the normal range for INR blood tests at labs? I was told 2-3 is the normal range. My last INR result was 0.99 no blood clot or values great than 3.0 for a while on Warfarin blood thinning 5mg tabs per day since May of 2014. What INR lab test values should I be paying attention?

welcome to hcm,
normal inr for a person not taking warfarin is 0.8-1.2
for persons on warfarin range is 2-3
low inr for a person with warfarin therapy has risk of clot
and high inr for a person with warfarin therapy has risk of bleeding
hope this explains
with regards
