[Becksagogo]

What wonderful news. There is light at the end of the tunnel.

[Hidden in reply to Becksagogo]

Thank you, Becks, There certainly is. (Me and my 'saying' collection!). Martin Luther King satd: "Faith is taking the first step when we can't see the whole staircase." Very true although I often have difficulty with wanting to know the whole picture at once! Sort of like I want patience and I want it NOW! irina1975

Congrats...My EP recently told me if I just "hold on" until this summer, I too will probably be off Eliquis and be able to resume my normal lifestyle, minus Eliquis, thanks to my Medtronic monitor.

Good for you. I hope you'll feel as good as I do getting off these Anticoagulant drugs.

Great news irina,all the best for the future. Thanks for the contributions to the forum. I ordered some magnesium and a good spray bottle to make my own magnesium spray. Should be here tomorrow, thanks again.

Best wishes, Shaun

[Hidden in reply to ShaunMB]

Good it's an easy way to absorb magnesium, not a lot of money, and you know what you're getting. BUT sometimes I spritz just to get some extra even though I have not just showered. You can't overdose with this method and there are no magnesium G.I. upsets. Hope it works well for you. Take care. irina1975

Brilliant! I'm so glad u don't have to go for Coumadin appts anymore! Best of luck!!!

[Hidden in reply to PattiJay]

Hi Patty. I actually self tested at home so it was easy forme. Did weekly tests but coumadin tho helpful to me was a very harsh drug re side effects so am happy to be done with it. irina xx

[PattiJay in reply to Hidden]

So true! The side effects do get to be a pain!!! I am done with Coumadin as well and am on Xarelto. It is funny for me to think that after these 6 years now I take 15 pills and I'm due for a pacemaker (CRT-D) device replacement in 3 weeks already and I just don't know where the time went! I just think after this replacement I'm going to mentally start over and see if the next 6 years are the same! At least we won't be in the old Coumadin days!! Every day is one day a step forward!!
