I understand your fear, my Wife suffered from DVT and was taking Warfarin for about 6 months, I take Asprin every day and also worry incase I have a road accident.

Any blood thining medication including Asprin can be a hazzard, even if I cut myself shaving I bleed like crazy, if it were me I would not take the risk of a dangerous sport, nothing worse than bleeding to death, always a risk when your blood is as thin as water.

I know of a Lady that had a nose bleed, she was taking Warfarin and had blood running out of her eye sockets, the hospital nearly lost her, not realy my business but give it a miss, take up photography or model railroading, much safer.
