Pradaxa (dabigatran)
I have just started with my afib journey (trek?). My GP told me that my best blood-thinner choices were Coumadin, Xarelto, and Eliquis. I did my research, and, right or wrong, I chose Eliquis, even knowing its expense. (I have no insurance, thus I paid a lot of money to buy my first bottle of pills

Apixaban
I just wanted to thank everyone who had replied to my post about the effects of changing manufacturers of Apixaban. After several calls to my doctor I have managed to get him to prescribe Eliquis Apixaban as I didn't have any nasty effects from it My usual pharmacy didn't stock it and were quite unhelp

What is an ablasion procedure is it safe?
Diagnosed with AFIB, cardiologist has suggested for me to look into ablasion proceedure. Taking Eliquis but an expensive drug to be on. Research shows this proceedure with ablasion only 70% successful to put heart back in a normal rhythem? Has anyone had this proceedure done?

Eliquis and AF symptoms
Hi all, I've been following the posts on this forum and have received helpful feedback re blood thinners and AF. I was recently diagnosed with AF and was put on Eliquis, which I've not yet started because of what I heard about the side effects. I have bradycardia and experience flutters and lightheadedness

Tired
I have JAK2 and ET. I have been doing great since I am off of the HU and Anagralide. Only on Eliquis 2x's a day. Doing whatever I want to do. However, today was a day that I have spent all day in bed. Totally exhausted. Is it normal to have days like this that comes out of the blue? Hoping tomorrow

Anyone have Post-Ablation Good News
My doctor keeps pushing me to consider having an ablation procedure done. I'm eighty and take 50 mgs Metropolol because the doctor reccommended 75 mgs left me totally out of breath when I skied or walked the dog briskly. I doing better on the 50 mgs and the doctor didn't seem to object on my recent visit

A fib meds
I have been prescribed Eliquis and Metopropol. I've been taking it for a couple of years. It seems like it would be pretty rough on kidneys. Does anyone take an alternative?

Lopressor dose titration
Permanent afib 100mgm of Lopressor am & 50 pm plus eliquis. Decided to cut back to 50 in am because of blurred vision and now have had upset stomach times 1 week plus HR back up to low 100's. Thought I felt better on lower dose but maybe not??

I just don’t want to take Osteoporosis drugs. Cannot take Vit K2 because of taking Eliquis, for AFib. Would going to specialist help?
