I called my PCP today and also called a Health Coach through my insurance company to discuss the contradictory information that was given to me regarding my Coumadin. Both my PCP and the health coach highly recommended that I stay on Coumadin and listen to my cardiologist. They both said that only my cardiologist can decide what is safest for me regarding my heart. And at this point it doesn't matter whether I was admitted to the hospital with stroke or complicated migraine, there is a mass on my heart and that's why I'm on the Coumadin.
The health coach even said that it sounds like I have a great cardiologist if he was talking about getting second and third opinions on the myxoma without me even asking.
I'm feeling much more calm now. These neurologists were beginning to make me think that my cardiologist was crazy.
Glad you got some reassuring news! Hope you get more very soon.
