Not so fast ...

Sigh. First test after going of Lovenox (injectible low molecular weight heparin, aka enoxaparin), and my INR dropped to 1.8. So, I'm back on the shots for the next few days.

Honestly, I don't mind being on the shots. It's an emotional roller coaster to be on warfarin alone, wondering if my INR is secretly dropping in between tests, leaving me vulnerable to more clotting or even a PE.

My doctor says this kind of fretting is very normal for DVT patients. Doesn't really make me feel any better, though!
