Since tomorrow is my off day, I am scheduled for my consultation with my cardiologist. My latest PTPA result was a little higher than my normal range. I got a 3.something INR and my normal range of INR should be 2-3.
My cardiologist revised my Coumadin intake. I should be back after 3 weeks of taking the revised schedule of Coumadin. I hope my PTPA will be within its normal limits.
Since it will be a Wednesday, my cardiologist’s clinic will be in the newly opened big super-mall and their clinic is in the 3rd floor. Nice there are escalators and lifts, so I won’t get exhausted climbing the flight of stairs.
Any plans for your Wednesday?

@ridingbet Usually I do. I didn't today because the roads were slippery. I won't go if its icy or slippery. Otherwise, yes, I do.

@just4him but won't you feel cold when the icy water touches your body? i think a cold bath is good, but i hope your body gets used to the cold water.

That is my mindset now,that my PTPA range is within normal limits. Oh, I had my hair done last Saturday and dyed it black yesterday. Now I have the shortest black hair at home. My sister's is not as short as mine.
