A member asked:

Hello i'm still not filling to well after having vit k to get my inr down from 9 i havnt had no warfarin for a wk n had a bad head for 3days now?

Can't say for sure: There could be a variety of reasons. It needs to clear that your headaches are not due to bleeding in the brain area.Usually after stopping warfarin the protime recovers. There can occasionally be coagulation issues that need to be clarified and why you got the warfarin initially.
