Does deep joint pain relate to taking Eliquis for 5 weeks?

I've been on eliquis for a few years and no side effects. Maybe the reaction to to whatever put you on eliquis in the first place.

Not that I have read, but if you had micro-bleeds all the time, and if apixaban could be blamed, I guess that might be it. Is it all joints? Just load-bearing? Only non-load-bearing?

Rarely, after surgery or with systemic and chronic/unmanaged inflammation.
