Discuss Ol' Yeddar's answer to: Warfarin and water around the heart?10mil daly can warfarin cause that short of breath had open heart surgury two yrs ago

It is unlikely that Warfarin is the cause of your pericardial effusion. It could be a late complication of surgery or it could have another cause altogether. Pericardial effusion can produce shortness of breath as can heart failure.

I am not your doc, but could I send you a bill?

I really would like to know the reason that you have not asked your doc about this.

Keep close to Nature's heart... climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean.* Victims of circumstance owe it to fate. Victims of choice owe it to themselves.*One of the widest gaps in human experience is the gap between what we say we want to be and our willingness to discipline ourselves to get there.
