Hi Nick - Check this list of precautions for side effects:

quote: Stop using warfarin and call your doctor at once if you have a serious side effect such as:

- pain, swelling, hot or cold feeling, skin changes, or discoloration anywhere on your body;
- sudden and severe leg or foot pain, foot ulcer, purple toes or fingers;
- sudden headache, dizziness, or weakness;
- unusual bleeding (nose, mouth, vagina, or rectum), bleeding from wounds or needle...

Thanks Jackie. He now has quite severe edema in both legs and one leg ulcer on each leg. He has spoken to his Doctor who insists these have nothing to do with taking Warfarin. We don't know what to do next.
