Does anyone else struggle with the fear of falls and injuries while on Warfarin? It's a constant worry for me.
Warfarin has been a lifesaver for me, literally. I had a pulmonary embolism a few years back, and Warfarin has kept me clot-free since. But yes, the bleed risk is scary. I wear a medical alert bracelet just in case. It also helped to educate family and friends on what to do if I start bleeding unexpectedly. Knowledge is power, right?
Warfarin and kidney problems are a bad combo. I had to switch meds because my kidney function started to decline. If you have any kidney issues, please talk to your doctor about alternatives.
How do you guys track your INR levels? I've been having trouble keeping mine stable.
Anyone else deal with bruising easily? I bruise like a peach now. It's a small price to pay, but it can be annoying. I've started wearing long sleeves to hide the bruises.
I've been on Warfarin for a few years now, and I've found that a consistent diet helps a lot with INR levels. Leafy greens can interfere with Warfarin, so I've had to cut back on spinach and kale. Also, regularly scheduling blood tests for INR levels helps me stay on top of any fluctuations.
Has anyone had issues with Warfarin and dental work? I have a root canal coming up and I'm nervous about bleeding risks.
If you're on Warfarin, get your Vitamin K from a reliable source. Too much or too little and you could find yourself in a world of hurt. Be sure to ask your doctor about the best foods to eat to maintain a steady intake of vitamin K.
