Anyone having this problem?
I'm taking Lisinopril 20 mg mixed with Hydrochlorothiazide 12 mg, once a day. Also taking 150 mg Pradaxa twice a day and Metoprolol Succinate 50 mg once a day. My leg muscles, on both legs, from knee to thigh feel weak and sore. I was taking Eliquis but stopped that because I thought that may be what

Afib and High Altitude
Has anyone had problems going to high altitude with treated Afib? I live at a mile high but often visit an area that is closer to 10,000’ elevation. When I was not on any medication I was advised to not go to the higher altitude because of increased stroke risk. Now I am on Eliquis twice daily so I

For fear of seeming ignorant,,,,,how many specialists are necessary when you have or have had DT's, Pulmonary Embolisms, and possibly heart failure. I have had PE 5 different times now. Is it important to have a hematologist if you don't need to have IRN levels checked? What role would they play? And

Diagnosed with AF 2 weeks ago after breathing issues on a plane rushed to A&E, also had Covid. Shortness of breath tight chest I’ve had for a long, long time, thought it was down to being overweight due to unable to exercise properly with very painful arthritic knee joints. Hospital put me on ‘Eliquis

Status Update Post-atrial Cardioäblation:
Had rapid atrial quivering/fibrillation develop in Feb '21 while I was focused on avoiding a second heart attack after having had a major one 9½ years earlier. Got put on meds to see if AFib could be managed that way but worsened to the point that by Aug, my heart was tracked at 244 BPM and I'd collapsed

A big thank you for sending best wishes, support and information after I posted my concerns about going onto new drug Eliquis blood thinners, now have a 24 monitoring appointment with my local hospital, for this Friday, hoping this sheds some light onto why heart rate bounces all over the place.

Afib and cataract surgery
Is anyone willing to share their experience with cataract surgery? I have been reading about the procedure and I understand there may be some inflammation. I take Eliquis and unable to take NASID for inflammation.

Pradaxa Ahead Of Scheduled Cryo Ablation
I have been scheduled for my first Cryo Ablation in March for my paroxysmal AF and my EP wants me to start taking Pradaxa 30 days before. My Cardiologist has had me on Aspirin for the past 2-3 years. My ChadVas score was 1 but for the past year is 2 and I've never taken a blood thinner before. My question

cryoablation
I recently posted about sore joints. I did some digging on the Eliquis I'm tacking. Ever since I started taking it my joints are getting sore. I think this is my problem. The side effects of strong blood thinners can have this effect. My Dr doesn't want me to stop because I still have heart flips after

Life after watchman.
I was diagnosed with AFIB in January 2020. After taking eliquis for Two years I decided to have the watchman implant because of all the easy bruising and the expense of the eliquis. Am interested in knowing how others have done with the implant. It’s been four days since I got the watchman and today

I consider myself lucky
I guess I am one of the lucky one's. I had all three shots, didn't feel good for a couple of days, but I have had worse. The new flu shot for senior bothered me more the Cd shots. 2 1/2 years ago I was diagnosed with A Fib. But on meds, Eliquis, heart meds. But I had a 100 pounds of fluid around me

Major New Xarelto Study 12/21/21
This reads like a very important one. Over 500,000 participants. The study indicates a significantly higher rate of serious bleeds with Xarelto compared to Eliquis. It is a large study. The article goes into the details. It focused on older users. https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals

AFIB IS STRESSING ME OUT!!!
I have been a healthy athelete (boxer) until I was 56 years old, thats when I started having afib episodes to the point of mentally blacking out not passing out and then the journey began. Was put in the hospital for three weeks and put on at the time an experimental drug (dofetelide) which worked extremely

Lactoferrin and anticoagulants
I am a 78 old male with PAF. I take Eliquis, Flecainide and Bisoprolol. In these times of Covid a GP suggested to my son, who has no PAF, to take Lactoferrin as a preventative. I would like to take it as well, but I cannot find information on interactions between Lactoferrin and anticoagulants. Has
