How I got my diagnosis
Just a bit more about how I was finally diagnosed with paroxysmal AF. I never felt that I’d got back to “normal” after the shingles with increasing fatigue when my daughter invited me to join her at Bath Spa for her birthday as I’d been with my husband for my birthday some years before and really enjoyed

when a tablet is not THE tablet
Before I tell My story I just want to make the point that I am sensitive to all Meds. I was diagnosed with Perm. Afib 5 years ago and tried on several Anticoags. before settling with Eliquis (apixaban) as the one I could tolerate. I have taken Eliquis for the last 5 years without any issues. In January

Issue when reverting back to NSR
Hello everyone I had tachycardia / SVT from teenage years. Earliest episodes awful as little info available (groups like this were unimaginable then!). Over the years I had an on / off battle with "an irregular heartbeat" and I think most drugs were tried. But it seemed to become less of a problem as

YIKES-no Flecainide for 5 days
My ablation is in 3 days and my EP had me stop taking Flecainide 5 days prior (but I'm to remain on Eliquis until day of procedure.) I must admit I've been nervous stopping the drug. I'm moving slower, doing deep breathing throughout the day, removing any stress. I have had 3 episodes of Afib since

Chemo Side Effects
I was diagnosed with primary peritoneal carcinoma in January 2018. I had four chemos consisting of carboplatin and taxol. Then, I had debulking surgery followed by four more chemos.

Eliquis and acupuncture
maybe run the acupuncture past your primary or hematologist . I’ve been on it over 2 years and never bleeding issues including tooth extraction.

Bruising?
I have been taking Eliquis for more than 8 years for my AFib. Because the drug is a "blood thinner" I have been prone to moderate bruising, especially in the arms, whenever I work in the yard or accidently knock into something. Six months ago my MO switched me from Nubequa to Zytiga plus prednisone.

Eliquis and anxiety/ insomnia
I seem to be having a great deal of anxiety and trouble sleeping since starting Eliquis several months ago. Does anyone have similar experiences? Thank you.

Stopping bleeding
Evening all. (In my best Dixon of Dock Green voice)I cut myself while shaving today. As in pre-afib days I stuck a piece of tissue on it, but it took about an hour to stop bleeding. It was just a nick so there wasn't really much blood, but I was surprised that it didn't stop sooner. I'm on Eliquis 5mg

Hello everyone. I just joined and was asked to introduce myself so I am simply pasting the bio I wrote when joining. It pretty much describes my story. I will read more of the existing posts before I start asking a lot of questions. I look forward to being part of the group! Bio: I began having episodes
