Hi poor you what a worry, do you mean Wafarin for life, a lot of us are on Warfarin and manage very well.
Hopefully the staff will learn more about this condition. Not sure if their is a support group, but you will be able to learn more about it and perhaps then won't seem so worrying
Hope you feel more reassured soon and feel better
