Just a note to anyone taking coumadin or any very powerful drug -- please be sure to check with your pharmacist -- when my deceased DH was taking so many powerful drugs, the docs didn't always know how one would affect another. We had some close calls for a while -- and this includes being in the hospital, too.

He was diabetic, had a heart condition, failing kidneys, seizures, and lukemia as well as a few other not nice problems. There were so many specialists that our pharmacist was a great help. I pored over the big PDR book for some of the things, but he had so much more expertise.

My heart and prayers go out to my friends who have health problems
