So have any of you gone through heart surgery while already on coumadin? I'm curious how they'll handle that with me - for my cath they had me hold it for a couple days... for my pacemaker replacement I was admitted and put on a heparin IV 2 days prior... for heart surgery... eeks... I have the question in, just waiting for the answer from the surgeon... anyone been there before? Did they admit you a couple days prior and put you on heparin?
And does doing the maze procedure in addition to surgery lengthen the post-surgical stay any? I'm hoping to be home by Saturday... Sunday at the latest (surgery on Tuesday).
Yes I have too much time on my hands to think about these logistical things.
