Generic Apixaban
Greetings! The US insurance I have for Medicare recipients increased the Eliquis price by about $900 for 2024. That puts my total price for the year, including the deductible, at about $2,000. I simply can't afford it so I'm considering alternatives. Does anyone in the UK have experience with the

Questions about epinephrine
If one has been recently diagnosed with Afib and goes to the dentist and has been told not to take any shots with epinephrine, what are the other alternatives and just exactly how effective are the alternatives? Thanks.

Finally got Ruxolinitib
Today I picked up my first ruxolinitib tablets, to start on Monday, after the last blood tests are back from the lab. This has been a marathon of nearly a years effort, to get access to Rux. I will start 20 Mg twice a day and 1 x 300 mg of Allopurinol. I have been surprised to start with this fairly

Any suggestions?
Any help for permanent afib after having three cardioversions which worked for the past two years last one only lasted two weeks. Taken off Multaq and on Lopressor 100 am & pm plus eliquis. Told ablation would more than likely not be successful. Should I get a second opinion. Do not feel that great

8 hour flight
I was diagnosed with ET with jak2 about 5 years ago, my platelets aren’t bad at all only 790 at last count, so am only on mini aspirin at present. Going on 8 hour flight soon, should I take any extra precautions? A colleague told me I should be taking fragmin as such a long flight! Does anyone have any

Multaq?
Well, I am still dealing with post-procedure Pericarditis and taking Colchicine, but my Atrial Tachycardia and PACs are steadily increasing, happening during the say when they are just at night. My EP has recommended Multaq as a new one to try. The list has been long of what we have tried and failed.

Obinutuzimab - anyone get nauseous?
So I’m hoping to begin my obin infusions this week - just curious why they prescribed two different nausea pills Zophan and Compazine along with the allopurinol. I thought Obin is well tolerated - has anyone been nauseous and vomiting with this infusion? I start the Venetoclax ramp up on week 3.

Opinions on THC and CBD gummies for cancer pain.
Have you or do you use gummies to help manage cancer pain? Do you use THC, or CBD, or blended? How much do you take in 1 dose? How often per day do you dose? How effective has it been? Do you use it instead of opiates or as an add on? Any side effects to be aware of? Thanks in advance!

RA, gout and colonoscopy prep.
just sharing that with two hours of drinking the acidic powder purge mix prior to colonoscopy my big tie joint:knuckle which is already rigid with RA became agonising to such an extent even the air hurt it. It took 4 days to subside and no other joints have flared so I suspect gout and possibly prompted

Mixing medications
Apologies if this is a well repeated question, but not sure how to search for old posts where l’m sure there is an answer! Does anyone know of a good site where one can search for drug interactions? Have tried the pharmacy which is okay if you can get them to answer the phone and I won’t start on problems

Does metoprolol succinate cause nocturia
I am on Flecainide 25 mg in am and pm, and metoprolol succinate 25 mg in the am, and 2.5 mg eliquis in am & pm. Although bph can cause nocturia, has metoprolol succinate and eliquis also been known to cause it?

Inflammation and Arrhythmias
So I have had Atrial Tachycardia with several unsuccessful ablation attempts. This last one caused Pericarditis and I subsequently had to take Colchicine. Oddly, since being on the Colchicine, my daily episodes of SVT have tapered off. I am super curious to see if the episodes ramp up again when I am

Magic Magnesium Malate
Has anyone else tried this New Nordic magic magnesium Malate. I'm taking one tablet a day instead of recommended two. Each tablet has 120mg of magnesium, some b vitamins, which I'm used to but 2 extracts new to me. One has maritime pine bark extract 150mg per 2 tabs and some long pepper extract. I

new on Flecainide
My afib started 11 years ago with one episode and then went silent for nearly six years . So for the first six years I was on low dose diltiazem and one standard aspirin. for the last four years I was put on Multaq and Eliquis. Multaq kept me in NSR for about a year and then progressively became ineffective

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. Does anyone know if there is a safe lubricant that

Interferon
ET / JAK2pos diagnosed September 2023 age 66yrs. I’m collecting my Interferon therapy today after seeing my Specialist in Oxford (UK) yesterday. Recent platelet count is 506 and my BMB is showing no fibrosis. I’m feeling a little apprehensive but hopefully won’t have too many side effects. I also

Should I have a dental implant or bridge ?
I have PV (JAK2 Positive) my disease is very well controlled on 45mcgs of peginterferon alpha-2A every 8weeks. I wondered if anyone knows if it is safe for people with PV to have the more invasive dental implant than have a bridge fitted thinking of the risk of bacterial endocarditis? Thank you
