Should I live with it?
I am 60 years old and diagnosed with persistent Afib this past November. Probably had it more than a year prior as it is asymptomatic being the type with irregular rhythm with my resting heart rate at 50-60 bpm. Went on Eliquis and have been cardioverted three times- first with no meds and NSF only

Working out after AFIB
I saw my EP for a 90 day check up post ablation a few weeks ago. One of my questions was when can I resume more intense cardio workouts? I'm back to weight training, yoga, walking and rowing (on machine), but am nervous about getting my heart rate too high. My history: 3 (that I knew of) episodes

Apixiban
Good morning all, For years I have taken Eliquis apixiban, 5mg twice a day, yesterday I collected my prescription, only opened it this morning & I have for the first time been given Teva apixiban, different brand, same dose. Have to admit, feeling a little nervous taking a different brand as I have

Hi Everyone, - I would like to hear other member's experience with this drug, Various members of the medical profession play a sort of pharmaceutical Chess game with my BP, in which I am the pawn!

watchman
My EP recommended I think about getting the watchman device . I’m currently on Eliquis and have had no problems with it. His thoughts are as I’m getting older the falling risk increases as is the risk of breaking a hip. He explained that the device is safer than risking a major bleed in the event of

Song and Dance ?
I was thinking of the best way to celebrate my eight month anniversary since my WMM (Wolf Mini Maze) in Tokyo by Dr Ohtsuka at the NewHeart Watanabe Hospital. I am still in NSR (normal sinus rhythm) and my divorce from AFib is finalised. As our friend Jim knows, I went a little mad (as you do) when

It's not the adrenals it’s AF!
I kept thinking it was because of my tapering: I was short of breath, felt “chesty” and dizzy. The monitor I wore showed <1% incidence of AF but still at risk for stroke- so Eliquis for me. Scheduled for a visit to the electrophysiology lab for assessment. I believe it’s getting more frequent. Stopped

Apixaban adverse side effects. Advice please.
I have had Paroxysmal AF for approx five years, an episode of which will last anything from 1-7 minutes. This might happen once daily, perhaps 4-5 times a week. I usually control it successfully with deep breathing. For the duration of my affliction, I have been taking Eliquis Apixaban as an anticoagulant

4 weeks post ablation, heartburn, zero energy, unable to climb stairs
I had a cryo ablation four weeks ago, the procedure went very well, I did go back into Afib a few days later, but converted back to sinus, I understood that can occur, I had no issue with my groin and a slight tightness in chest. Roll on another few weeks and now I have zero energy, I cannot walk up

Branded Apixaban V generic Apixaban
Well, something strange is happening.I have been bruising on my legs for the the last month or so and my bloods are ok with recent tests. I read an article on how generic brands of drugs can be absorbed by the body differently to the branded version. I questioned my pharmacist who had said it's unusual

AV - Ablation and Tachycardia-Bradycardia

Eliquis and colonoscopy
I had a colonoscopy Monday and the only bad part was the prep, now waiting to hear back re the polyps they removed. I stopped the Eliquis on Saturday as directed. They administered the sedation thru the back of my hand instead of in my arm and now it is horribly black and blue bruised. Is this because

A-Fid
5 years ago I was rushed to hospital with 100 lbs of fuild in my chest, around my lungs, heart, stomach and just rest all over me. I was diagnosed with A Fid. I am on Eliquis, beta blockers, lasix. In 5 years never had another episode. Could have been the fluid?

Side Effects from Metoprolol 25mg
I am taking Metoprolol 25mg halved twice a day for AFib and having side effects of almost passing out or a weird feeling of like I would be passing out which has happened twice now. I'm taking it with Eliquis. Is anyone else having this symptom?

post cardioversion
Hi, I was diagnosed with Afib after suffering a TIA in April 2021. Amioderone and xarelto controlled it until after 6 months amioderone caused my thyroid to quadruple. So stopped amioderone. After xarelto resulted in an internal hip bleed was switched to Eliquis. Had an ablation Jan 2023 so still

Experiencing higher sleeping HRV after stopping Flecainide
I had a cryoboalloon ablation the end of January and was kept on 2x 50mg Flecainide during the blanking period. I had no AF during the blanking period and wore a Zio patch for 7 days just before the 3 months was over. At the appointment the APRN said my Zio came back clean, with no AF, very few ectopic

Heartburn-question for the forum
I have fairly well controlled PAF, current meds are propafenone, atenolol and Eliquis. I suffer from occasional heartburn (more than occasional if I do something stupid like have fried onion rings with dinner). If I have heartburn come bedtime, no matter how many Gelusil I might consume, it's almost
