I have no idea if it's a good idea or not to take. I'm going to run it be a friend first who's a registered dietitian who works in hospitals with Coumadin patients. (Her husband is our family veterinarian for our kitty cat and lab!)

I'll let you know... but it is interesting...

I realize I couldn't post the name just after I posted the pic and name... I edited it. Sorry.

I get it from Instant Breakfast and Multi Vitamin -I also put my Opioid const. med with it in the morning - I have been posting it for quite a while , because i kelly have never been good with my PT/INR since my Dia. Sept 1 2009 . You haven't seen my posts on this - I don't eat anything that has high Vit K value -

No, I haven't seen your posts re this. This is a capsule. I don't take any instant breakfasts because if of high or artificial sugars.

But I'm glad you found something. Since this is a response- not a post- maybe it won't be an offense to share the info. it's called K free daily. Manufactured in USA and distributed out of Phoenix. There is a website KFreeDaily.com

I haven't tried it/ may be a silly gimmick. I usually am against vitamins in general- I think if you eat well- not necessary but in the hospital I was dangerously low in potassium. (?)

Maybe admins won't catch it and delete it if you write it down quick! Lol!!!! ( sorry administrators! Love you! ❤️😂)

You could always PM something like that . Thank You . One of my medical alerts ,actually both of them come from a place in Texas.My one that is stainless steel dog tag necklace , and has 2 or 3 gigabytes of capability . and you can plug it into anything --needs NO medical program and i list all 27 disorders i have - Doctor's - emergency contact numbers - 13 different Meds i am on {accept quantities } they change all the times , and i also have a dog tag , stainless. my hemo years ago wanted me on a pill form so you get the exact amount every time as it is important.I need some of the Vitamins in the breakfast for my eye's , i have them tested every year now , it was every 6 months because of the Hydroxy.it has been working well also my breakfast eating habits are horrible.My INR is so wacky i can go from a 2.4 on Tues. to a 9.2 on Friday - -I also have gotten DVT in left leg in less than 8 hours when i had my foot rot !!! why don't you PM me and we can discuss that further . The PCP i had at that time was a complete idiot .He was asked twice and never did nothing so I had it out with him and needless to say he no longer deals with a lot of the patients there .Give a PM a try - am not sure how to do it , i have done it before but i am having Brain Cramps HA HA ..Great info for the people out there because our bodies do need Vit . -K .

These are the things I remember about you off the top of my head!

How am I doing?

I a sure you will find something, but be careful adding anything new in, as it could effect your INR etc, run it past your main doctor. MaryF

You made me laugh!!

Although maybe check it out with a doctor before posting? Some may read it as approved, it may not be compatible with our disease or drugs.

Good idea. I'll do that first!

KellyInTexasAdministrator

Yeah. That's why I'm going to have my registered dietitian look at this. I'm wary.

KellyInTexas profile image
KellyInTexasAdministrator

Yes, and run it by main doctor. That, too.

Yes, but apparently I fail in that category!
