Subject: Working out on Blood thinnersIn May and June I had to get three stents placed due to some surprising blockage I had in my arteries. Ever since then, everything has been great. With the stents comes meds, and I have been on a blood thinner and will be for at least a year. I asked my doctor about working out on blood thinners and he wasn't 100% positive or negative about it, other than no squats for a month due to the cath going in through my groin. I actually did the worst thing possible and did some internet searches on lifting weights while on a blood thinner and it was 50/50 yes and no. Anybody here lifting while on a thinner? If so, any issues you have had? P.S. I am on Brilanta if that helps the discussion |
