Hi,I am Dr. Robert Galamaga (Hematologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have been told that my protein s is on the high side I don t have the exact numbers but I a taking warfarin because I have blood clots in my arms after surgery where I began to hemorrhage and had to be given blood 5 units to be exact I am trying to figure out what protein s is exactly
Hi, Thanks for asking. Based on your query, my opinion is as follows. 1. If its serum protein, not to worry. However, if its urine protein and its high, it indicates possible renal disease. 2. Continue with regular warfarin. Check for INR regularly to correct the dose. 3. If you have increased urine protein, a renal biopsy may be necessary. Hope it helps. Any further queries, happy to help again.
