@fabienne38 Do you also take anything for cholesterol.... such as a statin drug? The side effects you describe sound more familiar with a reaction to cholesterol meds in some people. Bien des choses à vous! Mike

Good evening (it is 10 pm when I write this message)
No, I take no medication other than Eliquis, and no health problems, all my tests are perfect. I take Eliquis as a precaution since Jan 22, after a possible TIA in July 21 (which was never proven). I was operated for AF in 2013 and completely cured, I no longer had fibrillations since then. My GP has asked me to see my cardiologist to discuss changing my treatment and to see if these problems are due to Eliquis or not. She thinks it might be and suggests to try rivaroxaban (Xarelto). So I wait for a rendez-vous with my cardiologist.
Thank you for your concern !
Fabienne
