I've had big fluctuations down as far as 1.3 once but no side effects except worry that blood not thinning to prevent clots! Hopefully when you got that INR they increased dosage?

Hi I have Antiphopholipid syndrome ( sticky blood ) a lot of people with this conditions had migraine before starting on anticoagulants.

Have a Look at the GHIC web site, lots of information on there.

Having an INR of 1.4 is very low so ? Why you get headaches

There seem to be quite a few posts around about side-effects from various anti-coagulants and a general "shrug" response from doctors.... really not very helpful! Guess the only way forward is to jump up and down til they take notice and maybe action!
