    sold my house

    Hi Ann WOW that was fast. The last time we spoke you were heading home to put it on the market. I'm sure it's a mixed blessing because I know how much you like your house in the pines. Be well, and don't worry about us here on vr. Check in as often as you can. Evelyn

    Beer, wine and anticoagulants

    Moderation is the key.....my hubby drinks a glass of beer or wine every day. On days when he feels like more than one beer, he likes Old Milwaukee NA to fill in. E

    Freaking about my extended appointments

    My husband tests once a week and has for 7 years. His cardio says, "Better safe than sorry." However, we do have our own INRatio. Personally, I like his checking weekly and could probably go to every other week, but NOT once monthly. I think when you go out of range it's just easier to get...

    what to do (St.Jude vs. On-x)

    It's your body and you can have any valve implanted that you choose. However, I do believe that if you really like your surgeon and he's more comfortable with the St. Jude's then you have to take that into consideration. If you really want the OnX, then go with someone who is comfortable with...

He didn't have any problems associated with the drug, but we both wanted him off. Our cardio weaned him off over the course of about a month and he has never, thank God...
