I have CAD, afib resting HR 49 that sometimes goes to 37, flutter and low blood pressure. I am on a plant based diet and was just prescribed Eliquis 2.5 due to age and one kidney. Just found out I should restrict vitamin K which is in most of the foods I consume. What to do?

I’m curious why you were told to restrict vitamin K foods. Warfarin requires steady vitamin K intake, fluctuations make it tough to keep anticoagulation stable. Eliquis is not Vitamin K dependent, you can eat greens to your hearts content.
