Oh, Freddie, I'm so sorry. I know everyone was praying for a happy outcome. You're all in my prayers.

I was on amiodarone for a month. Saw the EP heart doc for checkup and he said no more. I was scared to death that I would have more trouble with heart rate - but no problems at all. Hope all goes well for you.

Big congrats!!! Happy valversary.

A big congrats... best wishes for many, many more.

Sad story - read the article in the Hudson paper. Cort - so sorry for your loss. Wishing the family peace.

IMO I think I'd feel better with shots until you get your INR cranked up - the last thing you want is to wind up back in the hospital due to a clot. That said, it is normal for the INR to drop as you increase your activity. I'd like to see you tested again on Monday to see if you're trending...

This is one of my favorite subjects. I take a multivitamin with 25 mcg Vit K (1-not 2) AND a supplement of 100 mcg Vitamin K. I take them every day, without fail. This has helped me maintain a steady amount of Vit K and my warfarin dosage is adjusted to take this into account. The recommended...

Yes, coughing can actually be a serious side effect of amiodarone. Glad you're off it - doctors seem to reach for that drug first, when it's supposed to be used as a last resort. I was on it for a month when the dr took me off cold turkey. No problems since.

Sorry to read of your loss. Peace to all.

Good one... probably true too!

Never heard of this before now. Looked it up - very interesting. How does it compare in discomfort to waxing or plucking?
