Warfarin

[Ian4]

For the past few days I have had a pain in my thigh and unable to put weight on it. It is free from pain when resting but as soon as I move it is painful. I have taken nothing for the pain nor rubbed anything into it. Never had anything like this before and is there a connection with the warfarin which I started to take 3 weeks ago and the reading for the blood is now 2.1 but seems the doc would like 2.5 Much obliged for any suggestions

[bednobs]

it seems very unlikely. There's not all that much difference between the two readings and 2.5 is probably only a target

Ian.

Is your thigh swollen?

For what reason are you taking Warfarin?

[Ian4]

I had a heart attack 2001 and now have the irregular beat . Was taking asprin befor the change over to warfarin . There is no swelling at all and I am not over weight. Taking a statin and Ramerepril daily Spelling not a strong point.
Thanks again

OK, well I agree with bednobs.....I cannot see any relationship with your symptoms and Warfarin.

It COULD be the statin, but that is just a guess.

My advice......monitor the situation for the next few days.
