you can go off for a short time. week sound long but each surgery has risk of bleeding. Don't know if Eloquis has a medication that with stop flow. Med advise is all over the place because of big pharma on tv,, Make sure AFIB is under control before stopping. KNow I had to go on Wafrin and other meds to get rid of a clot after pacemaker/deb replacement.
