TEE Test Tomorrow or not????

TEE Test Tomorrow or not????

Posted By Gina on June 29, 1999 at 10:31:25
I have a TEE scheduled for tommorow. I have a prostetic mitral valve and take coumadin daily. Called my hemotoligist about the amoxcillin that I will be taking before the proceedure and his nurse stated I may have to reschedule my test that the Dr. may want my off the Coumadin or the test. Is this a common practice? What are the risks during and after this test?  Bleeding,infection, etc. Thank you. Gina
