I may have a choice NOAC over Warfarin
Apologies in advance for yet another post. I may or may not have a choice between Warfarin and a NOAC when I talk with my Dr this Wednesday, but as always information is essential with decisions. My Warfarin appointment is on Thursday- but as yet I have not had an options discussion with my GP. As

Patient leaflet with Nature Throid

Warfarin and vitamin K2 supplements
Hi everyone, I've been on warfarin for nearly 3 years now. No real dramas with it and it's the only medication I'm on for APS. What s concerning me now is the potential serious side effects of warfarin namely 1) increased risk of calcification of arteries, 2) increased risk of osteoporosis. Warfarin

Stabilising INR with Vitamin K2
I've been meaning to write this post for a while but never got around to it - but Christo has nudged me to get on and do it! In summary, I've had great success stabilising my INR using Vitamin K2. And I don't bother about what I eat or drink either. All I do is take 1 tablet of 90mcg of Jarrow MK-7

Vitamin K deficiency doesn't cause PA
I was just reading this webpage: http://www.gutsense.org/gutsense/ibs.html and I came across this sentence: "Vitamin K deficiency is behind internal bleedings, pernicious anemia, inoperable ulcers, and strokes." While I'm not entirely familiar with the properties of vitamin K, I did recognize immediately

Warfarin, cranberries, diet, &c
Attended my first anti-coag. clinic a few weeks ago and was very pleased to find that I do not have to make any major changes to my (vegetarian) diet; just eat normally, BUT avoid drinking Cranberry or Grapefruit juices because they are high in vitamin K and would thus speed up clotting. I was expecting

Fibromyalgia
I have just read a article saying that all vitamins are synthetic and do us no good whatsoever, in fact some are made from coal tar. To get pure vitamins puts up the price considerably and the British Manufacturers seem to go down the synthetic route. When you look on the web for information about Fibromyalgia

Hi folks, No advice here, just links for more information should anyone be interested. This link gives a list of foods with magnesium, potassium and calcium. Good combinations for us! Again this is all personal and one should investigate further to obtain proper levels and combinations. http://

multivitamins
Read somewhere that as a lady in my 60's I should consider taking a good multivitamin daily--obviously without Vitamin K in it, At the moment I take the dreaded Bisoprolol and Warfarin but nothing else. Not sure what to take. Do have a healthy diet and a fair amount of exercise and any bouts of extreme
