AF & Edoxaban 60 mg blood thinner
Hi All, I've suffered with AF since the age of 50, i'm now 57. I only use to get 2 or 3 episodes of AF a year until now. I'm now getting them 3 or more times a week and i'm worried I may be heading towards permanent AF, I'm due to have my 1st ablation next year . My doctor has now put me on Edoxaban

Coming off PPIs when taking 4mg prednisolone
Obviously I am concerned for a stomach ulcer in particular because of the risk with
anticoagulants
. Has anyone got any advice or found themselves in a similar situation? Thank, Karen

New to AF. So many thoughts
Hi All, new to this forum and ultimately AF. Diagnosed 2 weeks ago with Paroxysmal AF after A&E visit due to continued palpitations. I’m a 36 year old male, fairly active and standard build. Echocardiogram has confirmed no structural or functional damage of the heart. Was given 5mg daily of Bisprolol

Where to turn next? 4th transfer - BFN

Paroxysmal Afib, longest episode before seeking help?
Like I said, I don’t feel at deaths door and as I’m on full time
anticoagulants
anyway (as I have Factor V Lieden following a DVT/PE six years ago) I think I should be covered for a stroke etc. I read the paroxysmal atrial fibrillation can last up to seven days?

CT scan at the start of anticoagulant treatment
Did your doctors said anything about CT scan when they first prescribed
anticoagulants
? Is there a safety protocol to ensure that patients starting
anticoagulants
are doing fine ? Thank you.

2 steps forward, 1 back
Feeling fed up, after feeling elated a few weeks ago. Thanks to Joanna Lane of the Christopher Lane Trust, my husband was diagnosed with growth hormone deficiency, and is going to receive treatment. Then he was also due to start physio on Monday, so everything was looking up. Then his breathlessness

Brilique and breathlessness
When I had my stents fitted about 3 weeks ago they changed my blood thinner from clopidogrel to aspirin and Brilique and have been told I'll remain on both of these for a year. I have been so lucky in that even with my cocktail of tablets I have not suffered any side effects......until now. I am finding

Black Eye while on Coumadin?
I am wondering if anyone has ever had a black eye on coumadin. I have one right now and have been told that the blood thinner will make full healing fairly slow. Meanwhile I have bruisy patches all over my face which came on a day or two after the fall that caused the event. I have no pain, no fever

Dual anti-platelet therapy - scary bleed after pinprick injury
I'd guess the combination of the
anticoagulants
in the insect bite and the DAPT (ticagrelor,aspirin) are causing this pinprick wound to just not clot. I'd rather not go to A&E for something minor but does anyone have any alternative ideas here?

3 months post ablation…..
Good morning from Texas…in the attempt to give us a new topic (without searching to see if it has already been discussed ad nauseam)… I’m 3 months post ablation with no Afib…hooray…but I have a 30-40 bpm heart rate jump when I get up in the night to visit the bathroom. After I snuggle back in bed it

Hcom with AFib
Hi I am new here. I have hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and take beta blockers and BP meds. Been fine for years and now this year I have had 3 episodes of A. Fib. ( I believe due to my covid vaccine but heh ho ) so now I have to take blood thinners. Anyone else with HCOM have problems with AFib too please
