New treatment

We were hoping that I could get released today and then stay in Seattle for a few days, but the Drs want to start me on Coumadin and want to see how my blood looks in the morning and then I will stay one additional day and follow up at blood clinic in TC.  They have been going back and forth on starting the coumadin before I have my gastro follow-up on Oct. 7th. The other option would be to give myself shots until that follow-up...the reason to not start the coumadin is that it takes time to regulate and would it be regulated before my follow up?? The coumadin would need to be stopped before any pancreas proceedures could be done...but that is weeks away and a proceedure may not be necessary. Soooo, they are gonna start the meds, I won't have to give myself shots, but I do have to stay one more night here.
BTW, I am feeling pretty good!
