Hi, your doctor is right, but if the cardiologist and anesthetist discuss they can plan a safe method of doing the operation.

In a simple word. Ecosprin is a blood thinner. So a pt under a treatment with ecosprin has always a tendency to bleed during any surgical procedure. The dictm is that. You hv to stop ecosprin for a atleast 7 days prior operation.
