Hello :-)

For most we come of blood thinners after a year but stay on Aspirin

But I would advise you do not come of anything without asking your Consultant or Doctor as each of us are different and they will be the one who will be able to tell you what they want you to take , how long for and when and if you can come of any of your meds

I hope you can get to speak to them :-) x

You should have a post operation review at 12 months. At my review GP checked bloods and altered any medication as needed. Please contact your GP for a review and don’t change anything without a GP approval Take care
