Why would you not be asking your medical specialist this question?

WE on MCC are not medical professionals and should not give medical advice. We are not only medical professoionals but we do not know your complete medical and mental health records including other medications and supplements you are on and any other medical or mental conditions that would important when making decisions of coming off a medication without medical professional determining the need.

Just trying to help here. Example. I have had a lot of PVCs and a poster recommended taking potassium and how much it help with their PVCs and PACs. I thought great I should try it too. However I have learned to check with my doctors before changing any medications or taking new supplements.

My Electrophysioloigist replied to a portal (Mayo) message I sent him on potassium. He said per my blood labs I was already at the high end of potassium levels and would not recommend taking any additional supplement. I hope that helps you understand your medical providers are not only medical professionals but they have your complete medical and mental health records.

Thank you jc76 for your thoughts. I agree with you and have sent a message to my heart surgeon. I just wondered what the Mayo Clinic thought about stopping a blood thinner. I understand you are not a doctor but it helps to get various opinions about the matter. xo
