Anticoagulants
Just a quick question , I just realised my surgery is closed today (silly me) and I can’t pick up my latest prescription until Tuesday . I will run out of my anticoagulant Edoxaban tonight so I won’t be able to take any for the next 3 days . I haven’t had an AF episode for the last 4 months and they

Anticoagulants
Hi,I'm Jo, I'm 55 and three years ago I had an aneurysm in my aorta so had an Aortic Root & Valve replacement at Papworth. I have been on Warfarin ever since, but it's had it's problems. My INR levels are all over the place even though I'm careful what I eat etc. For 3 months I have been bleeding from

Hi I'm Jo,Three years ago I had an aortic aneurysm which resulted in a aortic root & valve replacement. I had a mechanical valve as I was 52, so I have been on Warfarin ever since. My Warfarin levels are rarely right, so have to have it adjusted regularly, but this is my concern. Three months ago I

Open heart surgery
By closing this appendage off the signals eventually die off but also the risk of stroke is now reduced by 70/80% providing
anticoagulants
are still being taken . Personally I always had the impression that
anticoagulants
prevented stroke in AF sufferers not just reduced the risk.

Hydration (again)
Intuitively the advice to stay hydrated to prevent left atrial thrombus seems correct but I’m struggling to understand the science (physics) of the interaction between blood, water and
anticoagulants
in this context.

Taking K2 MK7
Apparently it cannot be taken if prescribed to Warfarin but it’s unclear as to whether or not it’s safe with other
anticoagulants
. Can anyone clarify this for me?

Shock diagnosis
Told without
anticoagulants
I was risking major stroke, heart attack or pulmonary embolism. Now on beta blocker, Warfarin and Fragmin. Worried 😟. Was working on day I was admitted and feeling very anxious. Don’t know what future holds.

anticoagulants-or not..
I have read a number of articles which I think say that the protocol for when to add to the CHaDs s score for prescribing
anticoagulants
with AF was based on patients who were very obviously symptomatic whereas many newer patients have fewer symptoms and discover AF through smart watches / other devices

Anticoagulant changes
I wonder if any of you can advise me please on
anticoagulants
. I have been on Apixaban for some years and recently when I have had my repeat prescription from the pharmacy the manufacturer of Apixaban has changed four times.

arthroscopy
Scary stopping
anticoagulants
for 2 days, but the cardiologist I spoke with last week did a good job reassuring me. Op being done under general anaesthetic. Am hoping it doesn’t trigger an af episode, before, after or during!

Dabigtran
After struggling with
anticoagulants
I am now trying Dabigatran/Pradaxa.After a month on a low dose my weight has increased ...nothing else has altered...I am eating less bread. ..in fact less overall. I eat little meat and don't drink alcohol. I do not want thus weight gain to continue.

amiodarone
My doctor seems to think ablation is the best so that I can eventually come off
anticoagulants
and therefore reduce the risk with the cavernoma. Trish5

Arthritic knee, back and anticoagulants
I would be interested in anyone's method of coping with the pain of arthritis, the necessity of averting an AF stroke and the interaction of NSAID gels such as Piroxicam (Feldene) with
anticoagulants
.

Apixaban
I had a text from my GP to say that they are reducing my dose of Apixaban tablets from 5mg to 2.5mg It said this came about after "part of an audit looking at
anticoagulants
". Has anyone else had this news?

Can anyone help?
I have purchased some Deep Heat muscle rub thinking it would help my aches and pains, but on the leaflet enclosed it states that people taking
anticoagulants
should not use it owing to the ingredients interacting with this medication. I take Warfarin.
