If I were on long term anticoagulation therapy, I’d seriously consider a tattoo to that effect.
Although you’d probably have to lie to the tattoo shop about the anticoagulation! Come to think of it, that presents an interesting quandary.
“Why do you want a tattoo that says Eliquis?”
“Um, no reason...”

I wear one for my extreme NSAID allergy. As a former EMT, did you look for them? Do most?

Absolutely. If the patient isn't capable of answering questions reliably then it's a mandatory assessment step.

Thanks Carey, that's very reassuring. I always wondered if it really mattered that I wore one, and I do 24/7. I'll get mine updated asap with mention that I'm on Eliquis.

Just work with the folks at St. Davids (since that is where you have chosen to go for your ablation process) whose job it is to help you seek approval..... Doing it the right way can avoid getting all worked up over issues that will work themselves out in due time in the vast majority of the cases as it is.
