I went for my normal warfarin blood test yesterday and the lady wrote my weight onto the paper that was being sent. When I asked why, she told me that a record of my weight had to be checked each time I had a blood test since warfarin puts on weight. This explains why I am getting bigger and bigger, but nothing has been said to me about what I can do to prevent it. I cant exercise as my immune system is deteriorating and I can hardly walk. I have cut back on eating even tho I am only a very small eater. Does any one have any suggestions please? I am very annoyed about this.

i am not allowed vitamins as they interact with warfarin, especially vitamin K. No one can give me a sensible moist diet with variety cause im dairy, wheat and meat free. Also not allowed soya,rice, citrus, berries, melons, oils, gravys, oil, fish, chicken, potato, sauces, and all green veges with vitamin K. I have tried dietitcians, doctors, and naturopaths and no one can help me.

get in touch with a nutritionist, tell them your specific needs and they will do their best to help you. you are going to gain weight, there's not much that can be done about that in your condition.. but they can help you gain weight more slowly while keeping a higher lever of overall health.
