I t sarted on thur. before surgery it was 2.1 at home but higher at the hosp. but thye decided to due the surgery anyway. Was released on an antibodic and the primary Dr. was afraid it would high, but as usual he was wrong. Hold warfin for two days brought me down fast Fri. 1.5 sat.1.3 sun 1.7 and after 3 lovenox shots a day and two days of 15mg. of warfin. Today it was 2.1 going in the right direction now. Stop the shots for now . That sure doesn't hurt my feeling any.! When went to take the bandage off from the hosp. Fri. night I had a reaction to the tape and my skin had blester under and it was wozzing stuff. I have so many alllergies to everything I can't win. But I on the road to recovery now .Thank God!!!!!!! I got the bill for the ICD inplant and it is well over 140.000 and I sure that is not everthing. Thank God for insurance!!!!!

Hi Sherrin,

Sounds like you are on the upswing! Happy for ya

I have been back on my Coumadin for a week now and have not broken 2.1. Even with loading doses. Activity level has been low, have not been eating. You would think it would be high They want me on the Lovenox until I hit 2.5. Lovenox day #10! My belly looks like swiss cheese

Hi Gina,
Besides have a chest that looks like a road map and blisters marks from reaction to the tape. My stomach looks like an eggplant. The best thing that happen was the laast time I was on lovenox so Dr. on call called a scipt. for six boxes(12 pre-loaded needles) for $10:00. I think I will be using theses for along time.Too! bad you don't live closer I could give ssome of theses.
