Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Severe Pain Behind The Head, Weakness And Fatigue While On Coumadin?
I HAVE BEEN TAKING COUMADIN 2.5 FOR 6 YEARS FOR BAD CIRCULATION. I CURRENTLY HAVE STABBING PAIN THAT COMES AND GOES IN THE BACK OF MY HEAD RIGHT SIDE ALONG WITH MY HEARTBEAT POUNDING NONSTOP OUT OF MY RIGHT EAR. STATED 6 MONTHS AGO AND IS GETTING WORSE. IS THIS ICH OR ANEURYSM OR STROKE OR ALL AND I AM ALSO VERY WEAK AND TIRED CONSTANTLY. 3 DAYS AGO A RED RING FORMED AROUND MY LEFT PUPIL.
I would suggest you undergo an MRI and Doppler to see if there is an aneurysm. Ich can be diagnosed with CT scan. I would suggest you consult some local neurosurgeon.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ashish Ranjan, General & Family Physician
