I didn't get a chance to read all of the posts/replies but my dad was hospitalized in May after complications following a routine hernia surgery. Wound up with blood clots, put him on Warfarin/Coumadin, and have been having a heck of a time trying to stabilize him. His INR was something crazy like 6.7-7.2 (and higher than that) at one point and they were able to get it back down to a normal range. I hope they can do the same for your mom. I'm sorry things have been so stressful.

She's on Coumadin for her artifical valve. She went in for valve replacement and iit has snowballed from there. I hope your dad is doing better now.

Better her BP is still low, but they feel it's due to the medications needed to help stop the A fib. INR is 3.2. She got to go home with the promise to check her BP and HR every 4 hours. She will see her surgeon tomorrow.
