Warfarin & JAR medicals

Hi folks

I am a Captain with a UK airline but currently declared "Temporarily unfit to fly" by the CAA medical section due to Atrial Fibrillation.

Early next month I expect to undergo a Cathater Ablation. This will require me to stay on Warfarin for approximately 3 months after the op. The CAA will not grant a medical whist taking Warfarin. So 2 questions;

1 Does anyone know if any of the JAR authorities will issue a Class One medical whilst taking Warfarin?

2 If so, is there any reason why I cant use a French / Italian / Irish etc medical on a UK issued JAR licence?

I have read the other threads on Warfarin but the last posts were over two years ago.

Thanks in advance.
