Just wanted to add another little bit of fun side effects for everyone. Last month, I woke up with a pain in my right groin. Since no gymnastics were involved, I treated with ice and ignored it. After a few days, pain was worse, so went to the ER (My home away from home) where a bone density scan was ordered. 4 weeks later I find out that I have a stress fracture of the lesser trochanter (part of the femour just below the femoral head - English translation hip fracture). Turns out that long term therapy on warfarin (ie. over 1 year) also increases your risk of fractures. And what does one do for this? Nothing. Orthopedic guy said just go as usual and no physio required. Easy for him to say since he does not have groin pain, and associated thigh/Knee/calf pain associated with accommodating my gait. Needless to say, seeing a new orthopedic guy. I have started iron infusions monthly as my iron and ferritin levels are low (but hemoglobin is fine). Still wondering which came first - the insanity or the warfarin! Fiona
