I AM NOT SERONEGATIVE!
So it has taken me 3 ½ years and nearly 2000 miles to finally be diagnosed and treated, despite going the best hospitals in NYC. I went to see Dr. Jill Schofield in Denver, CO this spring. As some of you know who have read my earlier posts, I became severely ill in the end of 2012. After 3 weeks of

Nocturnal foot and lower leg cramps - Eliquis
I had my first and hopefully ONE and ONLY episode with AFib over a month ago due the fact that I had consumed 3 mai tai's at a party. Being essentially a non-drinker this put me into major AFib and I was taken to emergency and had a Cardioversion. After the Cardioversion I was put on Eliquis for 4 weeks

Non-Drinker had an episode of atrial fibrillation and ended up needing a Cardioversion
Hi I have some questions. I am a non-drinker, only once in a blue moon will have a glass of champagne. However a couple weeks back I went to a party and decided to drink that evening. I had 3 mai tai's and ended up in the ER the next morning. My blood pressure was 70/47 and my heart rate got up

Whew! Done and dusted.
Well, that was as easy as it gets, I think. I'm even home already with no overnight stay after all. Doc says he only had to do a couple of touchup spots on the left side and couldn't induce any other activity at all. Not experiencing any arrhythmia at all now , either, but will take flec as precaution

ATRIAL FIBRILATION
I was diagnosed with AF in 12/2011 and was put on Warfarin and a beta blocker immediately. Things progressed with just intermittent AF sessions until 1/2013 when a doctor prescribed Cefdinir, an antibiotic, because I had the flu (and emphysema) and she was afraid I'd go into pneumonia. No pneumonia

Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation on Eliquis
Background: Some where around 20 years ago I was told that I had benign PVC's and was given Metoprolol 25mg twice a day. Eight years ago I had a coronary angiogram done and everything looked good and was told I had good heart function. Recently I started having lightheartedness, low energy and something

Eliquis or Xarelto
There is an antidote to these drugs being approved here in the states in 2016. I opted to not take wither of these because of no antidote being available. My INR on warfarin for the most cycles between being low and being therapeutic. I'm wondering if anyone on the forum takes these and is happy with

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.

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
