hi guys.
I am posting this with the caveat that coumadiners might NOT be able to use this medicine.
As a lot of you might remember from earlier posts of mine, I see this MD who is into nutrional medicine. He has put me on a drug, really an amino acid, call Piracetam, to help with that pumphead feeling. It is supposed to help with oxygenation to the brain. So far so good.
But, I do not do blood thinners because I have tissue vavles.
My gut feeling would be Coumadiners would not be able to use the medicine because of possible effects on red blood cells. I will check with him and see what he has to say.
I started on it about a week ago with the promise that it would make game shows boring, and help me be able to concentrate...all in preparation for returning to work. A lawyer who can't concentrate is not much good.
I am feeling less spacey...don't know if it's the drug or 3 1/2 weeks post-op.
