- Hi everyone. Got some some strangeness going on and thought you guys might have seen this before:50 y/o male, warfarin for life after three DVTs & 2 PEs. All has been good, although my INR dropped inexplicably about a month or so ago and got...
- Hi everyone. I've been taking warfarin for 7 yours now. I've recently had to increase my dosage because I changed gerd medication. I went from Prilosec to Zantac and my INR dropped like a rock. To deal with this I went from about 70 mg a week to...
- Hi everyone. I hope you don't mind if I run by a plan that my docs are forming that makes me a little nervous:I'm a 3 time DVT, one time double PE survivor and was put on aroun 10-11mg of warfarin for life after the third time. INR has been...
- Hi there. New to this group. I would appreciate any thoughts on my situation. I was feeling tired for many years and my doctor sent me in for a sleep test for apnea. They gave me a portable unit to use at home. The tech, a nice guy, told me...
- Hi, everyone. I was hoping to get some advice about travel over the summer. I'm a three time clotter (1st time with a double PE), now on 12/13 mg warfarin since clot 3. Never had a clot while on warfarin (that I know of). No known genetic...
- Hi there. I'm hoping someone out there could tell me a little about the road ahead for me. About 2 weeks ago, after a brief cold the week before, I lost all the hearing in my left ear in less than 3 hours. Had a little tinnitus, then it felt like...
- Hi there. I don't currently have a diagnosis yet but will be seeing a specialist soon. In the meantime, I'm wondering if anyone can tell me if the onset of their symptoms was quick or gradual? I ask, because I went from fine to tinnitus to vertigo...
- Hi, everyone. I have a question about warfarin. Now that I'm a lifer and buying it by the case, I'm starting to think about looking for lower cost sources than my Walgreen's. If you were in the US, where would you look online? Any recs for good...
- Hi there, everyone. So, I just saw my hemo and it looks like I've joined the warfarin for life club since my third clot and second PE event. last August. We were talking about causes: This last DVT/PE event seemed to have none. I've been tested...
- Hi everyone. Now that I've hit clot #3 and PE #2, I've been promoted to a lifetime warfarin power user(woo hoo?) at 12mg, so far. Anyway, because I'm at the higher end, I'm curious about what are the most common side effects that people here see....
- Hi everyone. I have a mathematical question and maybe someone knows the answer: I understand that everyone's INR responds differently to warfarin, which is why we all need to be dosed differently. However, within an individual, is the...
- Hi there. I had a DVT in 2008 & 2012, with a double PE in 2008. These days I'm doing OK but I sometimes I get pain in my side, where the pain from the PEs come from. Anyone else get that? Is this common?Thanks,CC
- Hi there. I've had two cases of pneumonia in the last 5 years (after a double pulmonary embolism. Not sure if they are related). Both cases have created pain in the same location: my right flank from my lower ribcage to my shoulder. Since then,...
- Hi there. I had a PE in each lung some years ago and have noticed that since then, I've had two cases of pneumonia since and am wondering if damage from the PEs could have played a part? The pain had been in the same area both times.Thanks,CC
- Hi everyone. I hope you've been well. I have two questions for you:First history: long, immobile plane ride: 2008, DVT, double PE, warfarin for 9 months then free & clear. Since then, checked for leg pain many times. Maybe 7 ultrasounds. No...
