Can A Dialysis Patient Taking Warfrain For Atrial Fib Cause Inaccurate Reading On A Breathalyzer?
I am a dialysis patient and I am also on warfrin at 8mg a day because of atril fib.
I recent blew fail on a Approved Screening Device and read fail after only two glasses of red wine
Can warfarin along with a patient that is on dialysis with no kidneys, that cannot produce any urine cause a inacurate reading on a breathalizer.?
You can email me at YYYY@YYYY

hi
welcome to our site
read your query
that is a very significant question
and i appreciate your problem
i will try my best to answer your query
it is very unlikely
that the kidney disease will mix up a breath analyzer
and still i would have liked to know more about
your condition and kft and sugar status
wine is metabolized via liver
not kidneys you see
and with kidney dysfunction and atrial fibrillation and
on dialysis, two glasses of wine is not really advisable
i hope this helps you
inform the reports mentioned above (if any)
so i can be of help further
best of luck
(please do understand that some problem remains as
online texting cuts down history and examination
thereby reducing the effect and efficiency
and increases reliance on tests)
(If the answer has helped you, please indicate this)
