I am on 5 mg of Coumadin a day along with many other drugs for continuous fibrilation..I received a message from the Dr on my recorder now I have too much Coumadin according to the blood test done in his office, The Dr said take none for three days then on Sunday go early in the morning for another blood test to see what amount I should take, he is out of town for comment,, I need to know is this real unsafe to have enough built up that I can go three or four days without it and does it effect the heart rate? my heart has gone from 75-80 to 63 while resting, my pacer is set at sixty. Thank you again. Iva

What are the side effects of Coumadin. How does it change your life? I am 25 years old I am having a mechanical valve put in. Do you think I should go with a human one that is what I have in now, and it has lasting me for eleven years. I have a very normal life.
