I had a call from my cardiologist. While I have a touch of atrial fibrillation,  it is something he feels a blood thinner can control.

That news brought up a potential conflict: in dialysis, a blood thinner is added to the blood at some point during the process.

The nephrologist who comes to the dialysis unit monthly just reduced the blood thinner because of concerns it was contributing to bleed outs.

I told my cardiologist about this recent change, noted the nephrologist and he need to compare notes before he prescribes a blood thinner he named.

I gave him the nephrologist’s name and the hospital she works out of. I’ll do whatever comes out of this exchange between doctors of course.
