For Pulmonary Embolism "Had chest pain that was diagnosed as a pulmonary embolism. Put on apixaban double dose 2 x 10 daily for the first week. 2 x 5 mg thereafter. Been on it for 6 weeks now. My stomach has been dodgy for years after an ulcer, but Lanzoprazole keeps it calm and under control.

GP putting me onto alternative and suggested Warfarin. Like everything, doesn’t suit everyone, unfortunately."
