You have to think positively, you'll get through this. by the way ı liked Warfarin roller coaster image 😀

After a month of waiting, I finally got Roche CoaguChek XS and strips. Now it's time to learn how to use it from Roche's YouTube channel.

what I want to talk about here is a drug that constantly interacts with different foods or medicines, causing changes in INR values.

Hello Is a replacement for Warfarin for patients with mechanical heart disease being developed in the near future that will not have the adverse effects of Warfarin? After all, we are in a period when technology is highly developed, but there is still no alternative drug to Warfarin on the...

Are the ingredients of such powdered haemostatic agents suitable for us? I am asking because we are taking warfarin and also because we are at risk of endocarditis.

I understand, but if I feel the symptoms of endocarditis, I will definitely go to a hospital. Since I have already had heart valve surgery and chose the mechanical valve, I do not plan to be in areas very far from hospitals, so I guess I do not need to keep the antibiotic you mentioned with me...

Neighbour, under what conditions and in what dosage do you use Amoxicillin antibiotic? When I asked a cardiovascular surgeon in Turkey about my concern about endocarditis and what I should do to avoid getting it, he told me that there is nothing you can do about it.

no

On the 25th day after my surgery, blurred vision occurred in my left eye and recovered after about 10 seconds. To be honest, I didn't think much of it at the time, and I didn't even realise that it could be caused by a clot. Last night I had blurred vision in my left eye and this time it...

Since we use warfarin, bleeding may last a little longer in some minor accidents. What I want to talk about here are minor accidents. Such as small cuts that may occur in various parts of the body as a result of an accident. Such as hairline abrasions caused by a fall while cycling. For example...

I'm asking because I don't know anything about this subject. Is the risk of stroke still increasing by 1% every year even if we use warfarin and monitor inr properly? Is it possible to treat this condition when you have a stroke?

👏👏👏👍

Although I am not exactly sure, I was the last aortic valve replacement surgery on this forum site. I had surgery on 27 March, about a month and a half ago. First of all, your inr values will be in the desired range very soon, do not worry. My resting pulse rate was in the range of 50 - 55 bpm...

welcome to the other side:)

There is a difference of 2.7 between your own and laboratory measurements over two days. Even if you didn't take Warfarin on Monday, don't you think this difference is abnormal? Could your inr meter have measured incorrectly?

My warfarin dose changes are not included in the table I prepared (but it is a good idea, I will add it to the table). However, I have already mentioned my warfarin dose changes in my post. Best regards

Chuck, thank you very much. It turns out I was worrying unnecessarily.

My inr value losing altitude :) On 27 March, after my aortic valve replacement surgery, my inr value gradually increased during the one-week hospital stay and reached the ideal value of 2.17 on 4 April. On 9 April, my inr value was measured as 2.12, I was taking 5 mg Warfarin daily during this...

Chuck, As far as I understand, since you are very experienced in INR monitoring, you can bring the INR value to the desired level by adjusting the dose of warfarin. I think I have a long way to go to reach your level of experience. However, all of the health institutions I researched on the...
