Going off Coumadin, no more symptoms
I am 53 and in October I was diagnosed with several blood clots in my right leg, A few days later I was diagonsed with 2 blood clots in my lungs. This is the first time I have been diagonsed with this. I was put on Coumadin and have been on that since October, in February I was given a blood test that had the following results: Protein C resistance <20% Protein C Activity 1.9 Total Protein S 34% Factor V Leiden Mutation POS HET F2 Gene Negative My doctor says I should go off Coumadin now and recommended taking 1 daily aspirin instead My Questions are 1) Does this advice seem correct and 2) Can I take aspirin the day after stopping coumadin, or should I wait a period of time.
