Severe stomach pain with anticoagulants
Started on Eliquis and about 3 days in, I started getting the worst burning in my stomach. Added prilosec with no change. When I'd take the drug, I'd get a pain from my front to back and even twisting was painful. The doctor switched me to injectable generic Lovenox, which at first seemed so good, I immediately went out an got a decaf coffee, which promptly upset my stomach. I'm now on day 6 and it's getting worse. I get scratchy burning in the entire abdomen, back pain, tightness in my back, should and neck. At night palpitations (cardiogastric) until I sit up and burp. I'm at my wits end. There must be someone else who solved this problem! Please let me know what you did and how you conquered the stomach pain. I have 10 more weeks!
