Advised To Stop Rivaroxaban.

A MyHeartDiseaseTeam Member

I had a quadruple in March and also experienced AF and so was put on Rivaroxaban.A Cardiologist recently advised me after a 24 hour monitor which showed no AF that I should stop taking Rivaroxaban.He admitted it was a calculated move judging what was more likely a bleed or a stroke.The same monitor also showed that I have a slow heartbeat and so along with the Rivaroxaban the cardiologist advised me to stop taking a 1.25 mg beta blocker.My blood pressure went up immediately and my heart rate quickened noticeably.I also developed a flushed face with a warm forehead.My own doctor administered Amlodopine 5 mg to help with the blood pressure.This has worked but I don't feel 100 percent really and am not convinced the meds are right so will have to go back to the Doctors and try again.

Patience and be your strong advocate. The pills can be a challenge, everyone is different. My friends again but for a while omg the side effects were horrific!

Dr's can help by doing paperwork for pharmaceutical Co. Even if you have Medicare. Once your in the doughnut hole as we all call it. The pharmaceutical Co will deny and then approve. Done this for my aunts insulin. Just have to hit those resources.
