Hi. I had my appointment yesterday with the coag specialist. I am on 40mg of lovenox twice a day at 8am and 8pm. I have to go back next Friday and have blood work. I have 2 choices. I can stay on the lovenox and have blood tested once a week or go back on the warfarin and go 2 times a week to have blood checked.  I have enough syringes for a week and a half, so will stay on the shots and see how things go. The co-pay is $50 for the lovenox, but then I only have to go once a week for testing. Warfarin co-pay is $10, but would have to go to Duke twice a week for testing.

Have had a busy week at work. Worked 5 days in a row. I have actually been tired and have been sleeping better. Must be the walking.

It has been hot and humid here. No outside work this weekend.

Tonya my PA is going to schedule my appointment with them for Friday so I don’t have to make another trip to Duke. I need a chest xray and blood work to check my immune status. That will probably turn into an all day affair with both appointments.

My fingers are dry and cracking again. Just what I need when I’m on the blood thinner. Otherwise, I feel pretty good.

Will post later in the week. Have a good weekend.
