Blood thinners can be dangerous also, there is an alternative where the doctors insert something like a filter in the artery of the leg to stop the clot from traveling

Years ago, I particapated in a five year study of warfarin, I had to get blood tests every month and towards the of the study I started to have uncontrollable nose bleeds, they cut down on the dosage and later was put on an eighty MG aspirin once a day. It's good for thinning blood but has it's drawbacks.

I had my MI over ten years ago and still going strong and I wish the same for our VP.

Warfarin certainly does have draw backs my father is on it and he has to be checked out every 4 - 6 weeks when he was on it before he did have nose bleeds but this time they seem to have the doseage more stable.
