Hello, Dorayme! How are you doing? I'm very sorry that you're in pain.

Yes, those are typical side effects of this medication, you may also experience dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding and easy bruising.

However, if your symptoms are very severe, you should consult your doctor as you may need to switch to a different medication.

Is there anything else I can help with?

I was put on warfarin July 3rd 2017 because I had a CT scan with dye. Then it came back within hours, positive for a large PE. I'm also positive for a DVT in my right leg. I was shipped to St. Louis immediately and they put me on a heparin drip and weaned down to warfarin 5 and sometimes 6mg. I'm in awful pain on every inch of my body. I can't hardly sleep at night. I was put in ICU yesterday because my right thigh was hurting so bad, I just knew that DVT was moving. My doc however gets highly offended if u question him about anything. He said my pain has nothing to do with my warfarin, its most definitely just from worn down joints. He said I just pulled a muscle in my thigh. Smh. Something has to give because this is not my first DVT. So he said I will be on warfarin my entire life. He also said I was diagnosed with Protein S Deficiency, so protocol for that is lifetime blood thinners too. I'm confused; I've been on warfarin for over a month. Wouldn't me taking that test for Protein S Deficiency while on warfarin given me a "false reading"? My doc gets upset when I question anything different than what he diagnosis me with???? Please somebody help me with my questions. I am 45.

Chrissy. Some doctors can have really bad attitudes when they think we are questioning their knowledge, when in fact we are just wanting to be positive about our health. I want a doctor that I can talk to and will listen to my concerns and act on them, if need be, instead of copping an attitude and allowing something to go wrong that cannot be corrected.

Just started eliquis September 12, 2017. Lower back pains are terrible . I noticed my urine had a funny smell for about 2 days. I'm sore on the side of my breast, very dry mouth , appetite is through the roof (I'm hungry all the time ), always thirsty but overall I hope and pray it's doing me some justice . When I first started it, the first 3 days I was nauseous for about 30 minutes after taking it. But I'm fine now. Those are some of the things I've noticed since I've been taking eliquis .

I had a blood clot in Dec 2017 in lower right leg. Put on Eliquis. Started experiencing side effects within weeks. Very dry mouth and felt the back of my throat closing in. After several months started feeling soreness in all muscles and joints. My lower right leg would swell every day. I stopped taking Eliquis four months later. Most of the side effects have gone with the exception of sore muscles in forearms and upper arms. Have extreme tiredness. Is anyone experiencing this even after stopping the drug Eliquis?
