No Epi
Did your Dentist know you have AFib and are taking Eliquis? Dentists use Lidocaine as it is a vasoconstrictor, however in your case Local with No Epi would have been best. Also sometimes before an Extraction you come off Eliquis 1-2 days before but your Dentist would have consulted with your EP. For

I was recently diagnosed with afib and am taking Eliquis and propofenone. I am scheduled for a hip replacement in two weeks and am wondering if having afib makes the surgery more dangerous. Thanks for any advice or info.

Should I lower flecainide dose to 1X per day instead of twice a day.
I have both a cardiologist and electrophysiologist since my first episode almost five months ago. I have lost twelve pounds and almost to my BMI weight recommended by the cardiologist. I had the Nuclear Stress test in my Cardiologist office because they had the convenience of taking he Lexiscan sitting

price of Eliquis versus Edoxaban
the Eliquis is costing me $ 140 each month. I’m just wondering if Edoxaban is cheaper?

Eliquis/Apixaban and rectal bleeding
1. I've been on Eliquis for about three weeks. I've had 3-4 episodes of rectal bleeding, usually two or three days apart. I think maybe it's just some hemorrhoids "encouraged" by the Eliquis. I'm seeing my GI in three days, so I'll know more then. What has been your experience with Eliquis? 2.

Cardiac Ablation Looks Successful!
I was diagnosed with Paroxysmal Afib in April of 2022. During my annual physical my PCP heard what he thought was a murmur, and called in a consult. After testing the afib was confirmed. I never noticed it, but started monitoring with a smartwatch and began to feel the episodes as they progressed. This

If you're taking Eliquis
The co-pay for 1 month's supply with my Medicare Advantage plan is about $165. I can get the generic apixaban from a Canadian pharmacy for less than half that. My cardiologist approved it.
