@sbranen Thank you for the reply. This makes me wonder if it is the Flecainide that is causing the constipation rather than the Eliquis. I have had so many new "health issues" in the past two years that I feel as if I'm falling apart. I take Milk of Magnesia everyday.... plus occasional Miralax.... and still have issues. And I feel so tired!

Not sure if this will help you but I started using coconut oil in my morning coffee. As soon as I get up I drink a glass of warm water; after about 15 minutes my coffee is ready and I add the coconut oil to the coffee and drink it as I always do. After about 2 days began to get relief

It is exactly Flecainide. Google it. Constipation is one of the first symptoms listed. No matter what you do Flecainide will constipate you.
Sorry you’re having so many health issues. I recently turned 81 and my issues continue to multiply. We’re only good for so many miles.
