Hi,

Chills and dizziness are unrelated to Warfarin use. Get the following tests done:
* CBC
* Routine urine
Yes, she is on current treatment but Warfarin needs dose adjustments. Hence, do regular PT and INR tests.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
