I only need to keep my 3rd class certificate. I don't have any of the

That's why you're taking Coumadin.


I believe that would affect my flying and would
be surprised if the FAA did come to the same conclusion. After a
echocardiogram, I'll have a chat with my AME. Thanks for your help.


Yes, a stroke would definitely affect your flying. If you have one you probably
would want to see a doctor. G
