R: afibrillation and coumadin

[Guest guest]

Just a few weeks ago was presented a not new drug, dabigatran exilate,

recently granted in treatment of atrial fibrillation, an anticoagulant drug

just between warfarin and aspirine, much more tolerated and sure in use. We

in italy are waiting for officila authorizing. Thus, treatment of AF will be

more sure and with much less side effects.... It is important beacose of AF

causes in most of cases stroke!

Oggetto: afibrillation and coumadin

 

 

 

 

Hey folks - this one is interesting. I have a patient who's a Vietnam vet

with some pretty strong PTS symptoms. He's been diagnosed with afbrillation,

and the doctors have put him on coumadin as a preventative.

 

His stated symptoms would indicate there is stagnation in his heart (I'm 5E

trained, trying my best to talk TCM), and he's been living with adrenaline

overload since he was based in Nam. His pulse is knotted overall (or perhaps

- is there a difference between picking up the arrhythmia on the pulse and

knotted quality?) and is often stronger and clearer on the right pulses.

There's no red on the tip of his tongue - it was blue, now is pink, swollen

and dry.

 

So here's the question: The test for blood " thickness' is showing that he's

actually getting closer to normal over time (since we started treating).

Unfortunately this isn't what they want, they want his blood to stay thinner

to prevent possible clots forming from blood that doesn't get pumped

completely out of the heart. The arrhythmia is still palpable (or the

knotted- ness).

 

I'm kinda taken aback, not sure how to proceed. Your thoughts, gentle

colleagues?
