need insight ...
i am not horrible,
been on no meds for 2 weeks(amoxy)
per LLMD for c-dif symptoms...
he called me friday late and ordered me some Flagyl...
He knows I am on coumadin 3.5 mg a day..
for 3 months now and running good INR #'s
do i ease back coumadin ?
or really slow go on Flagyl ?
its the holiday
and not a good time to jump into the flagyl
i just got,
and calling the LLMD seems wrong-saturday/sunday/holiday
probably wait till tuesday and call LLMD.
Your advice would be welcomed, wayne

There is a major interaction between these 2 drugs. Leave a message for your LLMD & have him call you.

Don't wait until Tuesday to call, especially with possible c-diff.
