FED up

Cardiologist loads me up with Metroprolol, flecanide, Lasix, Eliquis, Spironolactone, and now wants me to take Entresto that I read can cause

Eliquis and Wet AMD
My mom has been getting injections for Wet AMD for 13 years. They have worked well and her vision has been stable. She was diagnosed with Afib in April and put on Eliquis. Since then she has been having more bleeding in her eyes at her eye doctor appointments. It probably didn’t occur to her to mention

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

Apixaban Eliquis 5 mg - bleeding
Hi all, my dad suffers from Atrial fibrillation. Since he started taking Apixaban Eliquis 5mg daily in 2018 he has been loosing blood and his haemoglobin is always low. I'm worried now as his Haemoglobin is at 95 now and its causing other issues. Has anyone experienced this and are you aware of any

Any difference noticed between apixaban by Eliquis and apixaban by Accord?
I have just opened up my apixaban prescription and noticed that it is no longer Eliquis but Accord. Has anyone else had this swap and noticed any difference? I understand that Accord is a generic but I am aware that sometimes there are differences that upset people.

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

Eliquis
This may be a little long. On June 9, I went to the ER with shortness of breath, a CT scan showed multiple bilateral pulmonary embolisms. The doctor started me on heparin and did a procedure to break up the clots in the lungs (I forgot the name of the procedure) LOTS of blood work was done and the doctor

Great progress on Pegasys!
I’ve been on Pegasys for 16 months. When I started, my JAK-2 Allele burden was 29%. Today it is 14%! I was one of the folks who needed a higher dose of Peg to respond. Over 7 months, my dose was gradually increased, and I didn’t see a response until I was at 180mg/week. My blood work is now 100%

Eliquis
Good Afternoon,I didn't want to hijack Calypso' s post but I also have an enquiry re Eliquis. I recently bit the bullet and as advised by my Cardiologist have started taking Eliquis. I am on PIP - Flecainide and Metropolol. As time has gone on, it's taking longer for me to revert to sinus rhythm.

Had Ablation in '23 lately suffering from frequent PAC's.
Was wondering if any of you fine folks are having or have had bouts of frequent PAC's and what you are doing or what your doctor prescribed to get rid of them. I'm still in sinus rhythm according to my EKG but experiencing PAC's daily. I am currently on no antiarrhythmics and on Metoprolol for rate

Trimix and Eliquis
I live in Northern Cali. I've been using Trimix injectable, successfully, for about 2 years. I've been using Eliquis, for atrial flutter, with the trimix, for about 18 months, with no problems. My urologist refuses to renew the trimix because I'm on a blood thinner. Has anyone had this situation and

Someone had a question about Apixaban?
I had trouble logging in, anyway... I get my Apixaban (generic for Eliquis) from Canada Pharmacy Online at less cost than Eliquis. It has to come through U>S> customs, so takes 1 to 2 weeks for delivery. I take 5 mg twice daily and it works very well for me. As of this writing it is NOT available

"When to Hold, When to Fold"...or "a Bird in the Hand..."
Since first experiencing Afib 4 years ago, I have been advised off and on to consider ablation. Many people seem to think that ablation cured or reduced their Afib, while others have reported disappointing ineffectiveness and complications. It is difficult to pin down statistical assessments because

Hi?? best AFib BP med?
I have AFib & cll. I'm on 5mg Eliquis 2x/day, 100mg metropolol daily and ibrutinib 140mg 1x/day for cll. Counts are good but I continue to wonder which BP med is best in relation to my continuing AFib? I seem to get fatigued if I slightly over do activities. I've been reading and metoprolol seems

calming a fibs
So, I am having a fibs right now 9:30 at night in the USA. Heart rate went up to 137, then down to 80s 90's jumping all around. Could feel it racing and I was short of breath. My question is this: WHAT CAN I DO TO CALM ALL THIS DOWN? HOW DO I STOP THE ANXIETY WHILE IT IS HAPPENING? I just drank
