INR - are there any other APS sufferers with a target range from 3-4.5?

I know some are way lower ands others a lot higher.

Thank you for replying. Do you get funny heads with 3 and the same about 4, as I find that when my INR goes down to 3 I start being dizzy, and as it increases to about 3.5, its great but once it gets past this I start feeling wobbly etc. Have mentioned, but told that this is what we have to put up with and now INR is 4.5.

Hi my targt is 4.0 with a target range of 3.5 to 4.5. I am interested in what you have said about feelign dizzy/wobbly, I have started to get that in last few months. sometimes it can be quite bad. I am going to review my diary and see what my INR was when this happened. curious to know if other people get this dizzyness.

My target is 3.5 and I feel good at that. If it slips lower I get dizzy and fuzzy and achy and feel totally crap. Haven't gone much above 3.5 yet so don't know if I feel bad at higher INRs or not

My range is 3-4 if it goes below 3 i get allsorts of ache and pains and legs become weaker, i get brain fog if it drops below range too

Range is 3.5 - 4.5. Feel good within that range, but to be honest when my inr has been very high (7.7) i did not feel any different.

Hi - well my INR went up to 6 and I wondered why I felt dizzy and headachey and burning sensations, the local haem asked me to go in Easter Friday and it has come down to 4.4 and slightly feeling better. Have noticed in past when my INR reaches 3.8 I start to get heat in my head, joints etc and feel dizzy along with headaches. When I am about 3.7 then I feel better but when it is below 3 I get the same feelings as when high. I know its a balancing act but it does drive me mad. If I am feeling stressed, it doesnt help either.
