When I had open heart surgery to replace my aortic valve, I was given the choice of a mechanical valve or a pig biological valve, the reason I chose the pig valve was I didn’t want to have to take warfarin or Coumadin every day for the rest of my life

I take eliquis and a couple weeks ago my right hand went completely numb for about 5 minutes. Went to ER, did a CT scan and discovered that I had bleeding in my brain. They asked me if I had hit my had on something, and there was nothing I remembered that I would call trauma.

They checked me in and did a procedure called Middle Meningeal Artery (MMA) embolization to prevent future bleeding and took me off eliquis until further notice.
