Anticoagulants :: Drinking Beer On Coumadin


Jun 5, 2009

I spent 4 nights in the hospital with a BPE last month. No clotting problems before nor a history in my family so came as a shock. I'm 39 and never had nany health issues in my life. I was recently diagnosed with Leiden Factor V and told I'll have to take warfarin for the rest of my life. My doctor told me absolutely no binge drinking. (Is there any other kind?) I don't drink every day. But once a month or so I like to buy a case of beer at home or go to Vegas for a few nights and drink while I'm there. On these occasions I will drink 10-16 beers a night. There is no way I will accept not being able to drink beer for the rest of my life. I understand you can't drink on Coumadin (I would never drink one or two beers at a time). What happens if you say you stop taking Coumadin for a few days every month or so and drink? How dangerous? How long does it take for Coumadin to clear your system? The reality is this is what I'm likely to do when I feel like drinking.

Alcoholism :: Beer Addiction

It's been about a year now that we've moved to Germany. At first I would try one beer a night 2-4 times a week.  Slowly it's gotten worse to the point that every night I now drink at least 4 half liters (17oz each) every single night and I can't remember the last time I didn't drink. It seems like everyday I wake up and promise myself I won't drink today but I just can't not drink.... The beer is just so damn good I can't get enough of it; and it's super cheap too.
It hasn't caused any problems with my family or daily routine aside from me being tired all the time.

Food / Beverages :: Beer Vs. Soda

Yes, you know I like my beer. Now, is there really any difference between having a beer or two or a soda or two? I actually cannot drink soda due to the massive carbonation. It hurts my GERD. Beer doesn't give me any problems, and I like the taste better anyway. Don't get me wrong, I still drink a lot of water and milk, just enjoy a beer on occasion.

Alcohol - First Beer - And My Stomach Hurt A Ton

I had my first beer (age - 15) I didn't have a full one but I drank it somewhat quickly. That night I did eat some junk food. And when I went to bed I couldn't sleep. I wasn't tired at all and my stomach hurt a ton. It hurt in my stomach but I thought it was something like HAV but I have no clue. I really didn't sleep at all and now it's the next morning and I have no appetite and I feel I'll throw up if I eat. Also last night I took a few pepto bismo that didn't help. I was also gaging.
