I do have a low level of atrial fibrillation. My cardiologist put me on a blood thinner that I will take twice a day as soon as the prescription is processed. Happily, he doesn’t feel surgery would benefit me at this point.
My earlier concern that dialysis + blood thinner might be a lower risk than I imagined, as other dialysis patients are on a blood thinner. The staff can monitor the impact of this drug on the patient by way of the dialysis machine, that is, is it thinning the blood too much? In that instance, bleed out is a greater risk, so an adjustment is made to the dosage.
I feel like a science experiment a lot of the time!
