question: My husband has been on Coumadin for a number of years. Most recently his pt has been all over the board. He is currently taking 2.5 mgs 5 days a week, so 2 days a week he is taking nothing. About 3 wks ago, his right foot swelled up, he had considerable pain, they did an x-ray, no broken bones, they put him in a boot and in a couple of days, the swelling went down & the pain went away...2 days ago, it started over now pain in his elbow and swelling in his elbow and hand, right one. He is also taking Crestor, 10 mgs per day. Could this be DVT??? or a reaction to the statin which he has been on again for about a yr...he does not tolerate that well....didn t take it for a number of yrs due to pain in his joints...
