My GE keeps convincing me not to stay anticoagulated for C-Scopes because he will not snip if he needs to. That means I'd have to do a repeat of the prep and missing work and all. So far, every C-scope has resulted in at least one polyp getting snipped. I could always find another GE, but I'm not willing to do that. My choices. It's been a while since my last C-Scope. We'll see what the present postioning is. Maybe if I could go a round or two without polyps, I'd feel differently.

Because of my post-procedure bleeding with Lovenox, my cardio and I have often decided to just hold Warfarin for the invasive tests/prodedures/surgeries. I know that flies in the face of some modern thinking, but everyone's risk is different, and my Lovenox experience is assured to be a problem. Note, my cardio speals directly with every doctor before a procedure.
