Coumadin changes post-op
Has any one been on coumadin before (for pulmonary emboli) and after
WLS? I was on 10mg/day before and afterward we resumed the same dose.
The INR was fine (2.6) till 14 days after surgery (4.6-5.3).
My levels seem to be changing rapidly and would like to know of
others experiences. The doctors are real agressive about monitoring
me but still I am concerned.
Thanks,
Karen
