Need to monitor PT: If you change your diet you should get your blood tested more frequently to make sure that your pt is at the desired level. Discuss your proposed change in diet with your doctor to arrange for more frequent testing.

Yes: You may take normal amount of vegetable and fruits while taking Coumadin (warfarin) as long as you perform regular inr and pt through your md.

Absolutely: You can certainly eat veggies and fruit -- they're important for your health. However, keep the amount of them you eat each day consistent, since your doctor will want to keep the amount of Coumadin (warfarin) you need stable too. The veggies will have some vitamin k in them, and in large enough quantities could interfere with coumadin's effect. Keep checking your inr with your doctor.
