Thanks for information. Sorry to hear about your issues and hope they improve.

What is the Eliquis for? I have heard of it but don't know quite what it is prescribed for.

Eliquis (apixaban) works by selectively inhibiting (blocking) the effects of factor Xa (FXa), an enzyme that plays a key role in the formation of substances that cause blood clotting. Through its action on FXa, apixaban makes blood less likely to clot.
Eliquis belongs to the class of drugs known as factor Xa inhibitors. Eliquis may also be called a direct-acting anticoagulant (DOAC).
