Depends : Depends , if you don't have symptoms, not causing any complications , able to eat with minimum discomfort most likely your doctors will observe you. Or if you all the above and more will asses your cardiac status with tests , coordinate with your cardiologists, stop the blood thinners remove the gb and restart your blood thinners, you are at a higher risk but still risk is not that high.
