Pradaxa. Benefits and problems
Been on Pradaxa since 2016. Seems to do the job, but having started on 150mg found that bleeding from the anus was very unpleasant. The doctor reduced the dose to 110mg and that solved the problem. Taking the tablet gave me a lot of wind, but drinking plenty of water solved that. Pradaxa terrifies dentists

Open heart surgery
I had my first meeting with the surgical team at Papworth yesterday . I’m now pencilled in for an aortic valve replacement in June. We discussed my AF , the effects of surgery on episodes after and anticoagulants . Interestingly they stated that oral anticoagulants reduce the risk of stroke by 60/70%

Apixaban
I wonder if there is anyone here who is over 80, weighs less than 55kg and is on Apixaban? I was on warfarin but due to my INR being very unstable and also my forgetting to take it sometimes, my cardiologist switched me to Apixaban which I found a great improvement in that there were no more diet restrictions

Bit old fashioned...
I discovered that a castor oil pack really helps with knee pain. It's horrible sticky oil, but it works topically (for me at least). I have bad memories of this stuff from my childhood. Any hint of sickness and out came the bottle. I would not recommend injesting it! 🤮 it's better than the deep heat

amlodipine
I am just out of hospital having suffered an atypical heart attack (no pain) and have been put on Losartan to lower blood pressure. Unfortunately it is dropping diastolic pressure to much. Doctor wanted to try a ca channel blocker and I think I read on this site that some people were able to take amlodipine

DOAC - changes
Some time ago, I started Rivaroxaban but stopped due to side effects. Was switched to Apixaban but had more (different) side effects from that. My GP was very helpful and suggested Edoxaban. It appears that the choice of DOAC is as much random rather than individually considered for the patient! At
