Sorry to hear that you are experiencing a number of different problems. Most of us here are not medically trained so it is difficult to offer advice for dealing with the symptoms you refer to. As has been suggested, you really should consult your Doctor as soon as possible. Hope you get the help you need soon........

I have been taking xarelto for 7 years, I haven’t experienced any side effects, I have routine checks on my kidney function which has remained fine. No headaches, I do feel dizzy occasionally but I’ve never thought it might be related to a xarelto , I wouldn’t hesitate to take it again. I was started on warfarin initially, and although I kept taking an increased dose my INR wouldn’t go up! Much prefer rivaroxaban
