4 | DVT in leg | I've felt slightly colder, but it just seems my body takes a little extra while to adjust to colder temperatures. I also feel full all the time. I wouldn't say it is a loss of appetite, but when I start eating, I feel full much faster than ever before. | No other side effects. | M | 28 | 1 months | 7/25/2005 | 4 | DVT 3 times | I have had weight gain (20 lbs). I am tired and my periods are awful! I have been more impatient and never thought it could be related to coumadin until I read this web site! Could it really by why? | I have never heard of weight gain and mood swings to be related. I would like to hear from you if you have the same symptoms. | F | 31 | 3 days | 6/20/2005 | 4 | pulmonary aneurism | I have experienced a notable increase in either my frequency of dreaming or my ability to recall dreams. Since beginning the medication I am awakened often by midlly disturbing dreams. I dream or recall dreams every night where I once went weeks and weeks withour recalling a dream. | M | 55 | 32 days | 6/10/2005 | 4 | PE, genetic clotting problems | I get cold more often (although my doc says this isn't related) mood swings and slight depression, not sure if it's from the meds or the significance of the medication and the mortality factor. Bruising and when I get a cut, it takes longer to clot now. | Added worry with regard to getting pregnant; coumadin causes birth defects so it is unwise to get pregnant while taking it. Also the necessity to watch vitamin K intake (green leafy veggies, oils, etc.) to maintain safe INR levels. | F | 24 | 1 years | 3/29/2005 | 4 | Blood clot therapy | Still taking this medication for at least 2 more months | F | 43 | 4 months | 3/23/2005 | 4 | dvt/pe/ivc filter placement | hair loss, loss of appetite and weight, also fatigue | Although I am very comforted by the thought of all the benefits coumadin has provided me, I am having a hard time dealing with hair loss. It is also discouraging to me given the fact that I will remain on coumadin lifelong. Please contact me if you have the same side effects. Also does the hair loss continue or will my body adapt to having the coumadin in my system? | F | 31 | 1 years | 12/30/2004 | 4 | Sinus Venous Thrombosis | Tiredness, light dizziness, upset stomach, lack of appetite. All of the symptoms mentioned above do not always persist but rather come and go. | If anyone else is suffering from the same side effects, I would appreciate if you contact me via email and share that with me. | M | 27 | 2 months | 12/27/2004 | 4 | I had DVT when I was 14. | longlasting bruising. Especially if I accidently hit my leg or arm to a chair or a table the bruise gets too dark and stays for years. Really I am not exagerating. | F | 26 | 12 years | 12/25/2004 | 4 | Stroke | I am extremly cold now when I'm not excersising. That's the only one I can pick out though. I started it about the same time I started Neurontin (for seizures), so some of the initial side effects may have been confused with neurontin side effects | My blood's all normal now, no more blood clots in my brain! | F | 20 | 2 years | 11/12/2004 | 4 | Double Stroke | Bruising very easily. | Although this drug is great for extending ones life, it alters what life they did have extremely simply because of the side affects. | M | 36 | 4 months | 9/19/2004 | 4 | Mitral valve implant | She has sores and lesions in mouth, lots of brusing. | My baby will be on coumadin the rest of her life | F | 1 | 2 months | 9/7/2004 | 5 | DVT and Factor V Thrombophilia | Bruising more apparent when bumping into things. | Works much better for me than Xarelto which caused anxiety, chest pain, body aches, and mild shortness of breath. Highly advise taking Coumadin over Xarelto. | F | 48 | 30 days 7.5 MG 1X day | 10/14/2020 | 5 | recurrent dvt and pe | None | I had to watch my diet and do blood tests but the routine became easy. I'm very grateful I could cure my clotting issues. I switched to Xarelto for ease and it's been very easy. No side effects from either. | M | 54 | 10 years 10 | 6/1/2019 | 5 | Blood Clot Pulmonary Embolism | From what I can tell I am not suffering any side effects. But switched from Xarelto. And Xarelto has many horrible side effects. | I gained 25 pounds in 3 months on Xarelto and was having many bad side effects. So far Coumadin has been amazing. And i'm losing the weight I gained. I think it was all water retention. I feel so much better on Coumadin. | M | 49 | 10 days 7.5 MG 1X day | 12/17/2017 | 5 | I have afi | Black n blue easy bleed longer | It helps | F | 65 | 20 years 2mg | 10/23/2017 | 5 | I have afib | Black n blue easy bleed longer | It helps | F | 65 | 20 years 2mg | 10/23/2017 | 5 | Mechanical Heart Valve | Out of range sometimes, but no real side effects.

I test weekly with a home monitor and adjust dose as appropriate. | M | 44 | 26 years 5 mg 1X day | 11/29/2016 | 5 | Mechanical Aortic Valve | No problems. | I self-test my blood INR using a CoaguChek XS machine at home every week, and adjust dose if needed to stay in range. | M | 51 | 26 months 8mg 1X day | 11/27/2016 | 5 | multiple pulmonary embolisms both | F | 62 | 4 years 5MG | 3/14/2016 | 5 | aorticmechanicalvalvereplacment | Headhaches couple days each month, some bleeding in gums, numbness in right or left armand feeling of tightness in back seems once a week. | Any prices on warfarin testing machines? | F | 44 | 2 years 10mgperday | 2/14/2016 |
