AFIB stopped-should I still be taking Xarelto?
AFIB at age 70-had a cardioversion to correct. Reverted to AFIB once for a few weeks after 6 months. Started Xarelto and Flecainide. AFIB now gone for 6 months. Is there any point in continuing to take Xarelto to prevent strokes from AFIB when you don't have AFIB any more? I have not had any problems with it so far, besides price.

@cominer1 I keep reading that studies show that aspirin is no longer recommended for afib, at least.
