Ooohhh... that's a good one!

As far as testing is concerned, have you asked your PCP about it instead of the cardio? My PCP is enthusiastic about home testing.

I looked at it a while back and decided that it's a huge waste of money. My incision was super sensitive and I wound of using Vaseline & Kleenex to provide a shield from my clothing. I also found that close-fitting tank tops (high cut) really helped too.

She's in my prayers as well.

Prayers for both of you. I'm sure you'll be happy to have this behind you.

Congrats on your machine! FWIW, I wouldn't let my cardio or his nurse manage my dosage. I think they tried to kill me early on with bad advice.

I don't ever recall Baker/Norton warfarin being talked about in the US. It is actually Kunming Baker Norton Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd: http://www.kbn.com.cn/en/default.asp?id=1&mnu=1 The member I was thinking about is ChouDoufu - here was his thread about the warfarin he purchased in China. I...

Wonderful news.

My prayers too. Please let us know the outcome.

Lordy, Lordy. The mere thought of holding at 3.8 gives me the chills. I don't hold at all until I get to 5 - and then maybe only a half dose. Your doc needs to understand that a reading of 3.8 this minute could easily be a 3.4 a few minutes later. In your shoes, I wouldn't hold at all. If...

I'm with your cardio 100%. I think 5mg is where you need to be for now. I would also suggest that you tell him you expect weekly testing for at least the next 6 weeks. You need to be confident in the dosage - that should take you to a reasonable activity level so you can see where your 'healthy'...

Hey there- have a happy birthday!

Yeah, Suzanne's right up there with Kevin Trudeau :eek2::biggrin2:

Well, all I can say is CR@P. You really deserve a break.

Absolutely adorable!

Hope it's nothing serious - will be anxiously waiting for update. Don't hesitate to call 911 if you think he won't be home in time.
