No More Thinners

WOW!  My blood has thinned to a 4.8 on the INR scale.  5 is considered high, but one doc told us that 10-12 is where bad things start happening.  I am now directed to take nothing all weekend.  They are even worried I might still be too high on Tuesday for the angiogram.  Monday they are calling to let us know when to come in for more blood tests to see how far I have come down.

Feeling a little better than crap at the moment.

Got up into the high 80's in Phoenix today.

Might get a visit from Mary's college roommate tomorrow to kill some time.  She lives in Tucson where we dropped off on our way to Seattle 16.5 years ago!

  1. They way you convey news I can't tell if it's good or bad. I'm hoping it's good news. You need to dumb it down for us rubes!

    On our end, my father-in-law was taken off life support yesterday and given a 3-day timetable. He's 89 and has had a good life.

  2. Sorry to hear about your FiL--glad that he had a good life. I hope that he leaves you all with fond memories and that he left a positive impact on the world and those he came in contact with.
