I'm really worried about my mom. She's been having chest pain for a while and thought it might be due to gastric issues, but yesterday it got really bad and lasted more than half an hour. Now she's noticing that when she turns her head to the right, the pain in her chest gets worse. Since yesterday, she's also been feeling some uneasiness in her chest. What could be going on? Should we be worried about something serious?

I'm really concerned about my father who's been dealing with Atrial Fibrillation for about 6 years now. A month ago, we talked to the doctor who recommended Eliquis 5mg, which he's been taking consistently. He's wondering if it's safe to stop taking the medication on his own, or if he should check with the doctor first. Could you offer some guidance on how to approach this situation?

It is important for your father to not stop taking Eliquis (Apixaban) 5mg suddenly without consulting the doctor. Abruptly stopping the medication can increase the risk of blood clots and stroke in patients with Atrial Fibrillation. Your father should consult with his doctor before making any changes to his medication regimen.
