Wondered how people manage on holiday whilst taking warfarin. I have been recently diagnosed with a Pulmonary Embolism after returning from a short haul flight. The next time I fly I will still be on Warfarin, what have others with this condition or similar found works for them.

Friends on warfarin always check with their doctor before flying. Each patient is different some can fly safely, others are advised against it. For some the risks are greater than others.
