Hi,welcome to HCM..
Thanks for writing to us.

From the history it is evident tht you had a mitral valve replacement few years back and now you are on JANTOVEN(WARFARIN SODIUM).You have also ,mentioned your INR level between 1.02 to 1.06.
As per the recommendation, the INR level in a post mitral valve replacement pt should lie between 2.5 to 3.5,low INR level signifies risk of :
1.Bleeding from different sites such as gum ,nose, per rectum etc
2.fatigue, respiratory distress and dizziness.
3.sweating, vomiting etc.
so,as per the recommendation your dose of JANTOVEN should be increased, so that the INR lies between 2.5 to 3.5,following that your problems will get automatically sorted out.

Hope I have answered your query.
Stay fit,good luck.
