Without a blood test, which they will not be able to do on the road there is no other way for them to know your on Cumidin!!! Even if you have to make one up or pin a tag to your bike riding outfit you should not be riding without it.
I now carry a Medical Alert card in my wallet, which I have with me at all times, even riding. If the cardioversion does not work, and I need to remain on Cumidin, I have the information to get a formal MedicAlert bracelet and will implement that procedure. The cardioversion is scheduled in 3 weeks or so.
Thanks for the reminder.
I HAVE gotten a couple of nice bike rides in, and many long walks.
Today -
2.5 mile walk,
Also, did an hour at the gym - bike, elliptical and treadmill.
