Jeff,
I've been on coumadin for blood clots for over 15 years. With the help of several divers (Kirk, Martin, Annabel and several others) I'm diving to well below 30 meters on a good day, and have a static pb of 5:30. I have no way to compare that with what I might be doing if I weren't on the coumadin, but at least it hasn't stopped my diving. The bigggest warning I got about the combination of coumadin and diving was to not get shark bit.

Jeff,
Sorry to hear about the setback. Get better!
"Just a recreational freediver" -- I dare anyone on the forum to hang out w/ you for a day. Did you ever film one of your journeys through that weird little traverse at (was it Alexander springs?). That gives me nightmares every time I think about it
