I wrote on my chart to my cardiologist and explained I wanted to take a break from the Eliquis and the cholesterol med. I was taking (one at a time) so I can figure out which one is causing the weakness in my legs. It’s been a couple of days, but I haven’t heard back from her, but I did hear from a nurse in her office and she said she would contact the doctor again and said I could stop taking the cholesterol med for a week or two.. But I already started that process before I heard back from her so it’s been two days without being on it. I would like to go at least three weeks to see if I noticed the difference and then I know I will have to ask for blood work done to check my cholesterol just to be safe that it didn’t skyrocket. I don’t know if anybody else on this site happens to be on the Eliquis AND also a cholesterol med ( Rosuvastatin) and is having the muscle weakness in their legs. If so, please let me know.
Thanks
