What Causes Breathlessness And Dizziness While On Coumadin For DVT?

I have been diagnosed with DVT about 10 months ago. I am on coumadin and my PCP is monitoring my monthly INR s . Lately I seem to have episodes of shortness of breath, slight dizziness, tired/weak feeling, also feeling antsy or anxious. I am a 70 yo female, I am usually active and walk my dog a mile a day.
