@bryanta Bryanta - I am so happy for you!! It is wonderful to hear about success stories. That gives me hope. You are correct - the Watchman seals off the place in the left side of the heart where 90% of clots form. The remaining question, which seems to differ for each person, is whether they feel there is sufficient risk of a right-side clot forming to have you stay on a low dose of Eliquis or use another drug instead. Paws crossed I can follow in your footsteps and just have the Watchman and ablation. Please let us know if/when your side effects go away - and enjoy life without Eliquis!
