I am also taking Warfarin. I was not able to take the newer drugs Eliquis, etc. My lung doctor had me try Anoro & Stiolto, both of which made my AFIB worse. I was told that albuterol was the culprit as most of inhalers have a high content, except for Spiriva. A regular physician suggested the allergy test. Turns out I’m allergic to 17 different things. I haven’t taken any new meds since the inhalers. My shortness of breath has been the same except several times last week, I had to use the ProAir, but if I use it very often it triggers my AFIB ??

Well, going on this journey with everyone, I was in Texas during that horrific sand storms for about a month off and on, I have COPD and had the inhaler for that, but the dust in my lungs changed everything, could barely breath and felt very bad, went to ER and they out me in ICU for 8 days, had acquired A-F from coughing my brains out for a week before ER, something unnatural about that sand storm with half the town sick with this awful coughing, no infection just a weird cough, anyway.
With COPD things became worse for my heart and breathing was more of an issue than before.
I had a cardiologist team and internal medical team at a military hospital, they put me on Xarelto and Eliquis, also pain meds for my 3 collapsed vertebrae, a Valium to help calm me down, I had to leave Texas after discharge soon after, so no follow up with same doctors was not possible.
I get back to Alaska and my breathing improves a bit because of our clean air and altitude, saw my regular internal doctor on her last day at work, she kepted me on Eliquis and I did get another inhaler, I acquired a dinosaur mask inhaler and used that on occasion, I have to wait till Sept to see my Cardiologist, seems they have become overwhelmed with people with heart issues since the covid vaccines that they had to hire 6 more doctors at a heart clinic. Atleast this was from the nurse who made my appointment.
So, for the time being I am doing serious research on this A-Fib and these medications, I am a researcher way back in college days, now during these last 3 months not one doctor has warned against using a inhaler, so after reading all these concerns, I did more research, and yes, these should never be used for heart patients. And seems lots of souls have died from using them especially in nursing homes...
I will have lots to go over with my apps, first off Eliquis and Xarelto are not blood thinners, period, I correct every doctor who says that, its misleading. It's a anticoagulant, help prevent blood clots from forming..people are taking aspirin, when infact its not aspirin at all, if you look at every package it says NASIDs, to make it simple its advil, pretty much.
Pharmaceutical companies cannt patent anything from nature, real aspirin is white willow bark that's been used for 3 thousand years, Pharmaceutical companies change the chemical compound of willow, so it's not really aspirin, have family that are chemist. There are many things natural that thin your blood, beets, willow, turmeric, Ginger, cayenne pepper, garlic, etc
I brought the willow tincture made with alcohol, you can take make a true tincture without alcohol. And beets, and asian ginger drinks with real ginger root in bottle, I drink two big glasses of fresh squeeze OJ, I sit outside in the Sun for no less than 30 minutes, no hats or glasses, the Sun is life, then walk around the property everyday..not always possible in Alaska, but your vitamin D from the sun, your body stores for winter. One more thing you must get the best form of magnesium, take a bath in it , take a very good brand of pill form, do not ever buy a vitamin in any store but a health food store..Heals everything..You are electric beings, we need magnesium.
