Hello Doctors, I am scheduled for a BBL on June 7th. I just got my pre operative lab tests this morning and my INR is .95. The normal range is 2 - 3. In your opinion, is this a concern that would prevent me from having the procedure? In my research of low INR, I leaned that it could be caused by vitamin k, which I take in a multivitamin daily.
