Eliquis & muscle weakness, other accelerated symptoms of PD

my Zarelto blood thinner works by reducing the number of red blood cells, which, in turn, reduces my endurance when I do physical things like hiking, bicycling, kayaking. It is really frustrating to completely poop out after a few minutes of physical activity. It’s a trade off: cease taking the pill and increase my red blood cell count, thereby increasing my endurance, or risk a blood clot from an AFIB attack.

Thank You!!
People have such interesting things to say or to observe.
I wish we had more thinkers out there.
Carl has had so few issues called AFIB. This occurred during and only after a hospital stay. The nurse working with the Electro cardiologist commented in her notes "probably related" to the high dose anti-inflammatory drugs....prednisone, et. Yet to continue for the rest of your life seems oddly risky. Also , to believe that a "blood thinner" would not affect you in any way is (to me) dangerously simplistic ???
