Riding with blood thinners
About a year ago, my little brother was put on blood thinners after a heart attack. He wasn't in particularly good shape, but he was moderately active. His main source of exercise was his commute which I think was something like 5 miles each way. He also walked a lot.
He hasn't ridden since then. He wants to, but says he just doesn't have the energy -- this is frustrating him to the point that he's considering not taking any of his medications anymore. I can't remember what they put him on, except I know at one of the drugs is supposed to be a newer one that's pretty strong.
Those of you who ride with blood thinners, how did it affect your cycling when you got put on them, and what kinds of adjustments did you have to make a year or more later?
