Savaysa Reviews
For Atrial Fibrillation "I was scheduled for cardio version to treat A-fib. I stopped taking 48 hours before the procedure. I was told the treatment would take 2 hours and I must lie flat for a total of 4 hours. Well, 10 1/2 hours later, I was still lying flat from severe bleeding in my bladder - not even where the incision was made. I was allowed to go home the next day. The doctor's PA told me to start back up right away on Savaysa to prevent a stroke. I did, even though I disagreed. In less than 6 weeks, I began to have double vision and lost the use of my left leg. My husband insisted I go to the emergency room. Long story short, a brain scan found two bleeding brain masses, and I was flown to a hospital in Phoenix where I remained 8 days."
For Prevention of Thromboembolism in Atrial Fibrillation "It helped thin my blood during my afib. But the side effects of this medication where to life threatening. Bleeding from my lungs was my side effect."
