What to ask my EP
Hi, I had abalation Oct 19th and conversion 10 days later. EP said during abalation he was only able to treat the AF and left the flutter because he couldn't burn the heart for more than 63 minutes. Since then I send in a heart monitor weekly or if I feel like I should. Several times it showed I was

I have been on Eliquis for five months.
I am 71 and have been taking Eliquis since June of this year (five months). The only side effect I have is the $150 a month I have to pay when I am in the coverage gap.

eliquis
I, would like to read from people that are taking Eliquis about indications , age ,side effects. When I was on baby aspirin my hematocrit became low and reversed when I stopped the aspirin.

Amioadrone and weight gain
Hi, I had an abalation on October 19th and a week later a conversion. My dr put me on amioadrone and eliquis. I have hyperthyroidism and take synthroid but I am now gaining weight. The dr said I would only be on amioadrone for 6 weeks and don't read about the side effects so, of course, the first thing

Bone Pain?
Hi, over the past few weeks I've had three occasions of pain different than I've ever experienced. Two times it occurred after I put pressure on an area (base of my left palm pressing against grocery cart handle & the metatarsal area on my left foot after pressing it against the floor). The third time

More Blood Work
So I received more if my blood work and instead of having one positive antibody I have 3 out of 6 on the panel that was done. Still no sign of lupus, my specialist just said that this is overwhelming proof of my APS. Also my vitamin D came back at 10 so I've been ordered to take 7500 units per day, which

Blood thinners eg. Eliquis and osteoarthritis supplements

I am 73 years (young) and do have severe osteoarthritis. i'm wondering what the drug history/ interaction of blood thinners

American TV ads for NOACs.
Whilst in the USA 2 weeks ago I watched several news channels including CNN and was amazed at how much medical advertising there was. In particular I saw at least 6 advertisements for the new anticoagulants Xarelto and Eliquis. One advertisement featured an aged Arnold Palmer and a group of men on

Aspirin Facts
In several posts, I've seen references to NOT using aspirin. What is this about? Does anyone have any links to research about it? Background: 50 year old female. Diagnosed with AF in early June 2014. Could not control it with medication, and I stayed in AF constantly. Had ablation in July 2014

Aspirin
For some reason when I visited my EP two months ago he put me on Eliquis and told me told hold off on the aspirin. My cardiologist told me not to stop the aspirin. Well to make a long story short I never restarted the aspirin. Been feeling fine and a lot of the breathless symptoms I had while exercising

Change to Apixaban
Picked up my first packs of Eliquis (Apixaban) today so will be starting them in the next couple of days once my warfarin INR is south of 2.0 (but only just!!). Quite exciting to think of all that lovely spinach and brocolli I can now enjoy without a care and no more trips to the hospital for blood

Pac's 3 months after ablation
I've learned so much reading these posts. This is a wonderful group - this is my first post. I am 52, female and was diagnosed with AFib in March 2014. I had a PVI ablation in August 2014. I recently finished wearing a 30 day monitor which showed lots and lots of PAC's. I thought it was afib since it

I have seen recent advertisements for Eliquis as an alternative for Warfarin....is anyone aware if this applies to APS patients?

Are Eliquis, Pradaxa or Dabigatran available on the NHS? They are more efficient than Warfarin and are recommended by NICE
