I appreciate your willingness to report here and to follow up. It's a nice touch. I hope you won't mind my caution, but it will be hard to separate the healing process and gains in both function and mood that will surely come with those developments from real changes that will come with the cessation of the drug. That both will happen almost concurrently, or within days, means that it will be hard to pinpoint which of the two facts has led to any improvement, or deterioration, that might follow. Maybe if you experience an improvement, and then cease the apixaban, and notice even more improvement it might be something. Or, you may find that you cease apixaban when told to and notice no change at all.
