I also have taken Eliquis for about 2 years. My experience with dizziness is also challenge. I take the Rx twice a day and typically have dizziness or feeling "off" in various degrees with the first dose after about 15 minutes of taking the Rx. It is not an issue with the second dose. That effect can last for a relatively short time but most often as much as a couple of hours. There's no question that the two are related although my MD said that Eliquis shouldn't do that. I've concluded that my taking other Rx during the day that pertain to the Afib may have some relationship to the Eliquis lack of that dizziness impact per the second dose each day. The irony in seeing your comments today are that I also now have started feeling a burning sensation in the top of my feet mostly at night. That has only been for the past 2-3 weeks. I planned to cross check on line to see if that is a symptom of the Rx. You may wish to access Web MD under "Blood Thinners" and Healthline under "Eliquis Side Effects" .. both symptoms are noted.
