Covid vaccination

The person is on blood thinners, has diabetes, history of fits and other multiple health issues. I want to know if taking a vaccine now is safe for her. If so, which one - Covaxin or Covishield? I've read somewhere that a person on blood thinners must avoid taking Covaxin. Also, after taking a vaccine, can she carry on with medicines as usual immediately? Attaching details of medicines/tablets she takes.

Blood thinners can be stopped for a week before and after vaccination. Vaccination is a must either of the vaccine is fine but vaccination is must.
