Hi, A simple question that’s probably already been answered for me, but I wanted to make sure about whether or not to stop Eliquis any period of time before my cataract surgery. I did have the LAA ablation and a Watchman placed and I’m pretty sure Dr. Natale had said in the past that if ever one needed to, they could stop for up to seven days, maybe 5. Since I haven’t heard anything from the cataract people and my procedure is in 10 days, I assume it is not necessary. However, I’d like to get my answers from the experts at A-Fibbers because you all know the specific conditions and answers. I trust the information from most people here. Thank you. https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,201196,201196#msg-201196 Thu, 25 Jun 2026 07:15:36 +0000 Phorum 5.2.23 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,201196,201204#msg-201204 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,201196,201204#msg-201204
I went from my usual 20/20 all my life to much worse with blurriness and colors were dark. Next day check up I was back to 20/25 and one week check 20/20!!! I just don’t know why they progressed so fast from one eye exam to the next year exam And boom cataracts/surgery. A Fib and circulation? I’ll probably never know why but was thrilled to get that first eye done 3 days before the Winter Olympics started!!!]]> Qwackertoo AFIBBERS FORUM Sat, 04 Apr 2026 23:24:35 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,201196,201201#msg-201201 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,201196,201201#msg-201201 gloaming AFIBBERS FORUM Sat, 04 Apr 2026 22:45:23 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,201196,201199#msg-201199 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,201196,201199#msg-201199 Madeline AFIBBERS FORUM Sat, 04 Apr 2026 21:43:31 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,201196,201198#msg-201198 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,201196,201198#msg-201198 Carey AFIBBERS FORUM Sat, 04 Apr 2026 21:04:28 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,201196,201196#msg-201196 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?9,201196,201196#msg-201196
