I am new to site but have observed for over three years. I had my mitral valve replaced over two years ago with a mechanical valve and my tricusbid valve repaired.I also have a fib.
My recovery from ohs went pretty well . My problem now is I need a hip replacement and am scared to death. I have come off warfarin for a tooth extraction and kidney stones and had to
bridge with lovenox. I am wondering if anyone on this site had a total hip replacement and if they were uncovered by anticoagulation and how long. My primary Dr. said I was a worry wart.
Maybe so but strokes are forever...
Any info will be appreciated.
