I have A-fib and my cardiologist put me on Xarelto blood thinner.

Hi all

,what side effects can I expect on Xarelto? I live an active life style, I walk 3km daily and tend to our garden and like to swim. Are any of you experiencing fatigue or tiredness as to not be able to carry out any of these activities on these medications?

Try the AFib forum for a more informed answer. But, basically, not a lot of side effects. A life-threatening injury might be a bit more life-threatening but you won't bleed out from a minor cut. You might bruise a bit more easily.
