Warfarin is so tricky. My dad had issues with it but mostly severe bruising. I don’t remember any bleeding like that but I’ve blocked a lot of that out of my mind.
RE: My Family - King Bob - 01-04-2023
My mom had some intestinal bleeding from that too. But she blew off or forgot a follow-up visit to her doctor, and was on it for longer than intended.

I take it every day. It's not that bad for me, fortunately, but I think I'm lucky.

Debating about posting either:
Have you checked your rectum lately?
- or -
Let me hit you and I bet you'll bruise like an old banana...
Decided not to post either and just nod agreeingly.

srsly tho - how long have you been on it?
My dad was on it for the decade plus after his stroke. I remember one incident where he had a mild fall and his entire side turned purple from ankle to shoulder. It was the most intense bruise I've ever seen.
RE: My Family - King Bob - 01-04-2023
That reminds me that I mentioned the wrong drug above. She was on Coumadin when she had intestinal bleeding; she was then switched to Warfarin. Like DM's father, she got some tremendous bruises from falls.
RE: My Family - Drunk Monk - 01-04-2023
My dad went the other way. Started with warfarin then switched to Coumadin because it was messing with his diabetes et.al. Both were tricky drugs to manage.
RE: My Family - Dr. Ivor Yeti - 01-04-2023
Coumadin is the commercial name for Warfarin. I've been on it full-time since 2015. The bruising can be significant, but overall not a big issue if I wear my gear

You shameless flirt!
I did give a demo lesson without my coach gear once and I did get alarming bruises.
RE: My Family - Drunk Monk - 01-05-2023
I bruise easily now too. I noticed this after I was put on rosuvastatin. They usually aren’t that tender but the do discolor, but my skin tone tends to obscure the purple. Whenever I do sparring drills, I get bruised now, but I stopped doing hand to hand contact with the pandemic, and now with my shoulder issues, I’m not going to risk my one good arm.
I noticed a bruise on my inner right forearm after NYE. No idea how it got there. I once read unexplained bruises are a sign of alcoholism but I haven’t had a drink this year at all yet (hmm, I should rectify that).

Unexplained bruises are how ninjas say "Hi!"
RE: My Family - King Bob - 01-05-2023
Maybe DM got that bruise from one of his enemies doing black magic on him.
RE: My Family - Greg - 01-05-2023
Good guess.
