Hi, I joined this group once before, but forgot my info. So here I am again.
I had a AVR Oct 2007. I take 7.5mg 4 times a week, 10mg 3times. That keeps me about 2.7 to 3.0 they check me every 5 to 6 weeks.
Sometimes I think they ask to see me to often, but once I had a Doc dose me at work. I ended up peeing blood, then passing clots:mad: He had me up to 7.5 inr. Back to my Docs clinic. I had gained some 20 pds which I can't seem to lose. I cut back on food, I walk everyday 2 to 3 miles.I strenth train, but still can't lose the weight.
Anyway, just wanted to bitch alittle and say hi!:)
 
Well hello again! Welcome back. Age got anything to do with the weight gain? Retaining any water? Once upon a time, I was a lean 160 and after all the things I've been through, I'm now bloated to 210.

Hi
It's ok to "bitchalittle" here! I too gained weight although I haven't tried hard enough to lose it. Part of mine is age and mostly eating too many carbs and sweets. Right before surgery I lost weight quickly and was too thin...114 lbs. Now I'm a chubba wubba of 145 lbs.
