So grateful to you for starting this discussion, lovepeacejoy! I have been experiencing self-diagnosed A-fib for at least a year (after the Pfizer double jab--NO booster!).

Why self-diagnosed? I used to be so healthy (before the jab) that I didn't have a doctor. Still don't. But I can feel my heart jumping without any fancy diagnostic equipment. Discovered through Advanced Food Intolerance Labs (discount available via Groupon.com) that I am deficient in calcium and magnesium (again, due to the Pfizer double jab which caused my cutaneous mastocytosis to escalate to Mast Cell Activation Syndrome/GI-D (gastrointestinal-diarrhea). Eighteen months of chronic diarrhea with my weight dropping to 115 pounds! Loss of electrolytes, as you can imagine. It has been confirmed from a compilation of data that there is a "worldwide spike in food hypersensitivity" due to the vaccine. Yes, I became allergic to almost every food on the planet. Had to do research to identify low versus high histamine foods. Used the SIGHI chart and other sources.

A month ago, I got things under control thanks to another forum called Inspire.com. Learned of DAO enzyme which is a histamine digester. I am still careful about my diet but have been normal for a full month and succeeded in getting my weight up to 120 pounds as of this morning. My goal? 123 - 127. Oh, I am down to one antihistamine per day, an H1 Blocker (Claritin). Was able to cease taking my H2 Blocker (Tagamet) four days ago with zero problem. I've always wanted to cease taking Tagamet since it has the unwanted (for me) side effect of lowering stomach acid. I've never suffered acid reflux and wanted optimal stomach acid to benefit from my food and supplements.

I share this because the above may shed some light on the cause of your A-fib. If you can identify the root cause, that can be addressed rather than treating symptoms.

As to ceasing Eliquis, wise advice from nancymulloy. Conversely, your doctor may be well informed as they gather more data from others who have felt the need to get off that drug due to adverse reactions/side effects. I urge you to do some independent research, too. I'm sure you'll get plenty of "hits" when you do an Internet search.

As encouragement, I will offer the fact that my A-fib is much improved since a week ago I had the courage to add more magnesium to my daily regimen. Found a form that does not have a laxative effect and then resumed my usual evening dose with even more magnesium in another form. ZERO problem! Also increased my calcium supplementation (in a reasonable fashion) with optimal amounts of D3 and K2 so the calcium ends up in my bones, not my arteries. And, with an entire month free of diarrhea, all my other vitamins and minerals are in me long enough to provide benefits.

I hope you come back to update us on your decision, the results and more.

FWIW (For What It's Worth), interval aerobics (according to an MD with a video on the Internet) can be helpful in reversing A-fib. I miss getting on our treadmill but, due to 18 months of electrolyte loss, I recently suffered a hairline fracture of my metatarsal! But that's another story. I've bought one of those restraining booties and hope to heal on schedule, be back to normal by Thanksgiving (in eight weeks at the most).

May you be blessed with success, health and wealth!
