And it's not the closed head injury-type hemmorhage I'm worried about, it's the simple, day-to-day small things like cuts, scrapes, shaving nicks that bleed forever! Hate it!

I've been very lucky in that regard. I'm not bleeder and don't bruise easily. But like you, I'm stuck with the Coumadin for the rest of my life. One of my long-term concerns is the effect on my liver function. My doctor cautions me to limit my alcohol consumption to a couple of glasses of red wine with dinner.

Sorry for the hijack!

Unless you have some underlying liver disease, don't fret it. My GP, internist & haematologist all recommend a yearly liver function test as a formality and that's about it. As long as you're not stressing your liver in other ways, like with other heavy-duty meds, heavy alcohol consumption, etc, there's little to worry about as long as you have your INRs monitored regularly.
