Protimenow, I was before my TIA was going once a month and now that I had it my doctor has me coming in every two weeks if it's on the lower side 2.3-2.5 which is still good but wants to make sure I don't slip. If my Inr is good 3.0 -3.5 then he has me coming in every 3 weeks. I don't have a...

Yes I'm on Lipitor but my last TIA was this past July while I was on Lipitor. That was when my Inr was 1.5. I'm 39 6"3 about 230 and eating healthly.

Thanks to the both of you for responding. I have had two minor strokes and just wanted to make sure. I rather have carpal tunnel in my hands than my Inr to go down to 1.5 again and have another stroke. Thanks again for your help. Brian

Thanks Freddie, I searched another website and they recommend to stay away. That's why I ask. Other vitamens they tell you to stay away from also. I have carpal tunnel syndrome in both hands and my parents recommended 200mg of b6.

Thanks to everyone who has answered.They checked for total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, Albumin, AST, ALT, ALK Phosphatase, and total protein. It was 7 not 8 so I was wrong lol. 5 of 7 were above normal levels. They increased my dose and haven't checked yet, but I was just wondering if my liver...

Thanks it helps alittle.My Alt is 128 and Ast is 80. They are high but not in the millions like your wife. I hope she gets better soon. There was about 8 blood tests for the liver they did for me and they were all higher than normal. I read that the liver has a lot to do with the body's natural...

My PC doctor has found out that my blood work for my liver has come back high for all levels. The doctor thinks it maybe Hep C or fatty liver but won't know for sure until a ultrasound (which I just Had) and more blood work. My question is that, my Inr has been on the lower side for several...

thanks so much for your help.

Thanks Al. How do self testers get coumadin? Do they have to call a doctor to call in a prescription? Do doctors have to prescribe meters?
