For this holiday I drank zero alcohol, i wanted to see if it was a factor on my usual holiday INR Highs!
For anyone that has visited Venice you will know that you spend the whole day walking. Fair enough, but tiring. On the first day, after 12 hours of walking, my muscles were aching and I was feeling tired. We pushed on, and then I got a sudden stabbing pain in my foot. I literally could not walk, and it got worse and worse as I limped home.
This was still hurting like crazy 5 days later.
Warfarin related? Who knows - but i think so. Some form of a bleed in my foot caused by excessive exercise.
Why was the INR high? Equally - I don't know. Stress of Travel? Altered Diet? Maybe.
