Hello @cece1112 and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. What a tragedy that your sister passed away. I am so very sorry for your loss. Your concerns coupled with your experience of losing your sister is so valid and understandable.
Can I ask how forthright you've been with these concerns with your hematologists in the past and if you have a plan to discuss this thoroughly at your follow-up?
I’ve been on Ellquis for three years. Before any of my surgeries they told me to stop taking it 3 to 5 days before. Good luck with your surgery.
