Hi all I have aortic valve replacement with On-X prosthetic mechanic valve 6 months ago. I'm 29yrs. I m on 4mg Acitrom (equivalent to 8mg coumadin) and 150 mg aspirin a day.

What u will suggest for me regarding INR Range, Daily walking miles, blood test frequency , heart echo frequency, daily routine , experienced any problem related to this, any event etc. If yes than how to tackle that and precautions for not arising such event.

i have no knowledge of your condition but I would suggest speaking to a cardiac nurse. You can ring the B.H.F. nurses and get some advice.
