Hello @fredster4

These are good questions to ask your cardiologist at your next appointment. Sometimes there are protocols for certain procedures. A lot of the people who have Watchman devices implanted have had bleeding problems with Eliquis (or other blood thinners). If you begin to have bleeding problems, you should contact your doctor right away.

How are you feeling taking Eliquis?

The best word to describe my feeling is weird. Have developed strange aches and pains which my cardiologist says are not related. Some bruising. All tests are normal except for a very few AFib times. He wants to implant a device for further analysis before recommending the watchman. I am on Eliquis, plus Amiodarone was added on day two.
