OK, I'm about a year out from having my aortic valve replaced with a St. Jude mechanical. I also had to have an aortic aneurysm corrected. I have been on Comadin since that time and get my levels checked bi-weekly. Just recently I have been diagnosed with a mild case of Anemia. I am pretty sick of all this, but I realize I have to take care of myself. I am now 33 and just seems like I am way too young for all this. Here are a few questions:
1) Will the iron interfere with the coumadin?
2) How long will the mechanical valve last?
3) Is there any advancement on a drug to replace coumadin?
Thanks
