      I would think your doctor will or should be on top of that. Ask the doctor...squeaky wheels get oiled so get an answer from your doctor.

        Yup, you really need to speak to your personal physician and/or the surgeon that is going to do the procedure...coumadin is a blood thinner..the anesthesiologist (sp?) definitely needs to know what meds you are on....good luck if your question concerns yourself or a loved one..(:

          Your doctor should have told you, if not the surgeon should. I had to stop 5 days before surgery and one to two days after.
