Rivaroxaban.
I'm a lady in her 60s still working and otherwise quite fit but a bit overweight and trying to lose it. I was diagnosed with AF in 2019 and have been on rivaroxaban 20mg and bisoprolol 5mg twice a day . I have no particular side effects but have read edoxaban is a safer bet as a blood thinner than rivaroxaban

WONDERED WHAT YOU THOUGHT
I was first diagnosed with AF in 2021 when I had an ablation. Since then I manage my situation with 50mg Flecainide twice a day and Apixaban. I found some papers today (2022) where my EP said I was doing well with maybe 3 incidents a year. I get my heart checked every year and its of sound structure.

My question is has anyone developed atherosclerosis due to an MPN. None of this started till this year. My platelets were one million fifty seven thousand the other day when doing a blood test prior to my procedure Monday. I take hydroxurea and low dose aspirin for the platelet issue. Does not seem to

Stroke Prevention in A fib
Just wondering if there has been any buzz/chatter about the drug — Abelacimab (MAA868) a monoclonal antibody that binds to the coagulation (clot forming) factor XI and locks it in the inactive state, preventing it from being activated thereby preventing thrombosis i.e. blood clots . It seems to have

Blood thinner question
Hello. One of my afib medications is Xarelto, 20 mgs. I was put on a program from when I was in the hospital last November for afib to help me with the cost of the medication, the program was good for a full year. I just called in my refill for my meds, for the next 90 days. That will take me into

Anti -coagulation dosage.
Much is written on the subject of anti- coagulants and medicine dosage in general when administered to the elderly. I read that the dose of Eliquis should be lowered for the over 80s, but have not read (unless I've missed it) anything about lowering the dosage of Xarelto at that age. Does anyone have

Anticoagulants
Anyone had experience with being offered anticoagulants? With me for atrial fibrillation. I'm worried about the bleeding risk of course.

The dilemma of hypoalbuminemia
Hello everyone, I have a history of MPN for many years, I have noticed that my liver protein, total protein, albumin, and prealbumin levels are all frighteningly low in routine medical examinations. I even suspect that my C-reactive protein levels are low even when I am in an inflammatory state. Low

Having a bad day
This is my third post in this group and I’m hoping to get some positive testimonials from long term APS patients. I’m 38, my partial diagnosis started a month ago when I was hospitalized with bilateral PEs. My first round of tested showed triple positive. Unsure what that means still. Went home from
