Am 47, had Aortic valve replacement and I am on 7.5 mg of Coumadin. Yes it will increase your apetite. I am thinking of food all the time. Try to eat healthy, fruits, nuts, cereals. liquids, etc. in small portions. Exercise! it can be walking and some weight training as permited or tolerated. And think positive, you are still alive and things may get better down the road. God bless
