Eliquis and fish oil
October 30, 2019 04:17AM
I interviewed a new GP today who saw that my Cleveland Heart lab testing for particles size were too big so he suggested 2000mg fish oil daily...knowing I am on 2xday. I’m already on 782 x 2/day of fish oil also.

I already am bruised on my arms and legs from stumbling from syncope so I bruise easily. My INR is elevated already.

Too much fish oil concern because it works as a blood thinner and I don’t want too much?

I’m not doing anything until I get it cleared with Dr Natale’ NP but yet I am curious if it’s too much and I don’t want to bother them again because I called today to see if I can have a flu shot. I have to wait until my next appointment...YET I bet fish oil would help with the inflammation from burning.

Thoughts or advice from those on Eliquis?

I've been taking fish oil and Eliquis for years. It's no problem. And yes, you can and should have a flu shot. You don't need to ask them about that.
