viagra/aortic valve replacement

hi everybody,
i had an AVR op in june '99. i had a ST JUDE valve fitted
and the op was largly uncomplicated. i went back to work in october, and apart from some tiredness i feel good. i am taking Warfarin (coumadin),between 5-9 mg per day. i am 43 years old
and would consider myself to be in good health besides.
i would like to ask the doctors if it is ok for me to take viagra
i am on no other medication
