This afternoon I got tested again. The score was 2.3. Excellent.
There are lots of food restrictions associated with taking Coumadin, both in getting it to work right and to promote accurate testing. I can't eat green, leafy vegetables or cranberries, among a whole list of forbidden healthy foods. I also have to avoid some prescription drugs and OTC anti-inflamitory medications.
Because of the Coumadin I have been off Mobic, an anti-inflamitory for my joints, for a week now. I have taken it or other drugs like it for about eight years. I hadn't realized how effective it was.
