Hello madam, Welcome to health care magic. I can certainly understand your concern I have worked through your query in detail.
The symptoms you are experiencing is mainly due to side effect of warfarin , which are less serious and nothing to worry . try to reduce your weight by physical exercise, or walking and healthy diet.
your fatigue could be also due to depression which usually seen with ill health, so I would suggest you try on antidepressants like SSRI's ie Escitalopram, which can make you feel better in 2 weeks
Please check with your physician if he shares my view Post your further queries if any. Thank you
