Anyone trying cbd oil while on warfarin for aches and chronic pain. I have severe hip pain, and neck disk problems, have been told no more surgery as my heart may not make it. So we are giving our nervous dog cbd oil just so we can trim her nails and I was wondering if this stuff can be taken...

Gosouthernmd.com now has inratio test strips back up on their web site. Alere sent me a Coaguchek machiine that is defective. Getting readings of 5.2-5.7 yet ran a test on my INRATIO 1 and came out 2.8, then went to the lab and got a reading of 3.3. Called Roche today they are sending out a new...

What is up with Alere now changing their policy that we have to do twice a month reporting. For me this means I will be using 2 boxes of 12 strips per year rather than one box at their price of $165. My doctor has me call into Alere, who then sends the results to the doctor, Alere then turns...

Had a problem with brand new strips from Alere Home Monitoring, kept getting error code 412. This code doesn't show in my instruction manual for the INRatio machine. Called Alere and was transferred to HemoSense. Subject I spoke with had me tell them what the code was and how far down the...

Here is my problem. I am trying to locate a pharmacy either in the US or Canada that sells the INRatio strips in lots of 12. I was using Raytel however my last set of strips were bad and giving me false readings. I called HemoSense which agreed to replace them however they would not sell direct...

Anyone know if you can order your inr strips on line from Raytel? Last year I had no trouble finding them now I can't find them for beans. Have made numerous phone calls and can't talk to a live person nor get them to call me back. After all the trouble I had with QAS I really don't want to use...

Anyone on here had to have Cataract Surgery while taking Warfarin and if so did you need to stop your Warfarin? Got a call in to my doctor of course he is out till next week. Surgery set up for the 28th of this month. Asked the Laser folks and they couldn't answer the question.

Anyone else having problems with their teeth since you went on coumadin? My dentist told me that it causes a condition called dry mouth and since I have been on it they can't keep up with the cavities. Now we are down to pulling them and I am headed for false teeth. All the cavities are taking...

Got the new prescription, did as the doctor ordered, double dose for two days then back to my original dose of 5 mg's and then 2.5 for two days. Home tested last night and was back in range of 2.3 INR. Guess this means no more mail order drugs for this old man.

Checked my INR last week was at 1.9, should be between 2.0 and 3.0. Thought well I had been eating alot of greens. Last night ran a check and it was 1.6. Got to the doctor this morning and I was at .09. Best we could figure out was the warfarin I have getting through mail order from PPS, in...

It seems that every time I put a large drop of blood on the green dot, it runs everywhere when it should stay on the green dot and I then get a error message. The only time I have gotten a good reading was the first day that the nurse talked me through a test and the other time was at the...

Finally after fighting with my insurance for the past year and half found the info here about QAS. They went to bat for me and got the insurance to pay for their machine. Hopefully no more going to the Doctor every month and coming out with a nice bruised arm. The only problem I had was with the...

May need to have a tooth pulled, asked my doctor today if I need to be bridged and he said no, just quit the warfarin for two days prior to the extraction. Is this right?

Approximately a month and half ago I was placed on Vytorin 10/20 and everything was just fine. Last week was in for my INR check and it had shot up to 3.7. I have been holding steady for the last eight months at 2.4-2.8. Doctor doesn't seem to know if the Vytorin is the culprit, which I think it...

Would like to know if there is any interreaction to Zetia and coumidian. Was recently placed on Zetia as I can't take statin drugs. My INR has been ranging from 2.3 too 2.5, however my last check was 2.8.

Anyone else have this happen. I am eight months out since surgery and about two weeks ago I started having a muscle spam. It is the muscle just to the left of the bottom of the incision and above the stomach. Can't think of anything I would have done to cause it such as heavy lifting. Will be...

This will only apply to the male members. Has anyone had a elevated PSA after being placed on Coumadin? Just got a call from my doctor that it was elevated, he feels that it is a false reading, however the hospital managed to give me a prostrate infection from what we believe was the catheter...

Had to call the surgeon earlier, as my feet have been cold and last night my blood pressure dropped to 92/65. Prior to surgery I was taking 25 mg. of blood pressure medication, however afterwards they increased it to 50mg. Doctor called back and said to drop back to 25mg and see if that helps...

Well it has been seven days since surgery. Last night was my best night for sleep so far. I was finally able to stretch flat out and roll over on my side. Still have back muscle killing me. Has anyone tried massage theraphy or maybe just putting heat on them? A couple days ago I had a really bad...

Well they released me today, 3 days after the surgery. Woke up in ICU about 3 hours after they were done. I feel like the whole 3rd Armour Division ran over me, man I didn't know I had some of these muscles. Got my shirt that says I walked out of ICU, and got a ON-X valve. Nurses kept saying...
