Warfarin overdose?
Hello everyone- I'm looking for a bit of advice about a warfarin overdose. My mum (who was 86) had been poorly with a fractured pelvis as well as a tumour on her kidney (which she'd had for a few years) She came out of hospital with a full care package because of her limited mobility but the carers

Vitamin D & K - What's The Story ?
A little while ago I saw some posts about the seeming miracle effect of Vitamin D with Vitamin K having the abilty to switch the Gene back on, that regrows lung tissue. It was stated that this was not a quick cure, but was a slow growing process that achieved permanent results. Has anyone heard any more

We need your help for a research project at Oxford University...
Hello, my name is Sian and I am a researcher at Oxford University. We are planning a project to see if vitamin K supplements can help people on warfarin who have variable INR. We would really like to hear the thoughts and views of people on warfarin. Do you think this project could be helpful? Do any

Beware Sprouts
Hi fellow sufferers...How about this for a laugh?. I've been in permanent AF since Sept 2014 and on Warfarin. My INR was stable at around 2.2/2.7 and I was all set for my CV on the 26th March. Then I decided that I'd have a good feed on my home grown sprouts ----- every day for a week. Suddenly my INR

I may have a choice NOAC over Warfarin
Apologies in advance for yet another post. I may or may not have a choice between Warfarin and a NOAC when I talk with my Dr this Wednesday, but as always information is essential with decisions. My Warfarin appointment is on Thursday- but as yet I have not had an options discussion with my GP. As

Warfarin and vitamin K2 supplements
Hi everyone, I've been on warfarin for nearly 3 years now. No real dramas with it and it's the only medication I'm on for APS. What s concerning me now is the potential serious side effects of warfarin namely 1) increased risk of calcification of arteries, 2) increased risk of osteoporosis. Warfarin

Stabilising INR with Vitamin K2
I've been meaning to write this post for a while but never got around to it - but Christo has nudged me to get on and do it! In summary, I've had great success stabilising my INR using Vitamin K2. And I don't bother about what I eat or drink either. All I do is take 1 tablet of 90mcg of Jarrow MK-7

Vitamin K deficiency doesn't cause PA
I was just reading this webpage: http://www.gutsense.org/gutsense/ibs.html and I came across this sentence: "Vitamin K deficiency is behind internal bleedings, pernicious anemia, inoperable ulcers, and strokes." While I'm not entirely familiar with the properties of vitamin K, I did recognize immediately
