Hi rebel - welcome to HW,
I'm on KARDEGIC in France, same effect as Warfarin - stops blood thickening/thins it down. I Take 1 sachet daily but was only put on it for 1st time since since my Aneurysm/Brain Haemorrhage Mar 2013.
My OH was put on K also after he had triple bypass here 2008 and had no problems taking it - his family has a history of hart probs.
Have you a similiar problem also? My neuro surgeon told me to avoid stress - that may have contributed to my Bleed.
Have you been tols definitely that Warfarin caused the brain bleed? Why are you on it?
As to your head throbbing, that I don't know an answer to - have you spoken to your Doctor about it?
Many of us on here on HW have said they had experienced similiar 'head throbbing' I'm sure you will get soon get lots more replies to your question from other members - some of us are 'early nighters' others like me, flake out v late on the settee!! so watch your mailbox tomorrow
By the way, welcome to Headway....and don't fprget you can also phone or email them as well - they are brilliant and its who ever answers the phone you talk to - not just a telephonist........all their contact details are here on the website.
Hope you find the answers you need very soon... take care......Shirley. (I not escaped from the asylum yet - joke joke - I promise!)

Dear rebel123,
Thank you for your post.
It is not uncommon for people to experience throbbing or other similar sensations after a brain injury. Do you have a specialist you could ask about it? If not, then going to see your GP might be a good idea.
If at any point you begin to feel unwell, or that your symptoms are getting worse, then you could call the NHS 111 Service (which replaced NHS Direct) as they can give you an assessment over the phone and suggest next steps. More information about the service is here: nhs.uk/NHSEngland/AboutNHSs...
We hope that this information helps. Any problems, do get back to us.
Best wishes,
Headway
