i have afib and have had bleeds on both warfarin and eliquis, so now i am wondering since i finally got my last round of bleeding stoppped after 4 months if i should go back on eliquis or any blood thinner. I am a 72 year old woman with copd so an ablation is out of the question and i really dont think i am in afib enough to matter plus i have always had non specif tach all my life. I am taking digoxin and diltiazem

The ONLY person who can help you make decisions about starting or stopping a medication is your cardiologist. We are NOT doctors , we are just a very wide group of heart patients like you with a wide range of opinions. While it can be helpful to hear from other folks about their experiences and opinions which can open discussions with your doctor, he/she is the only one truly qualified to guide you in your health decisions. I wish you the best.
