My dude, I'm so sorry you are having to go through this. I can't imagine how frustrated and disheartened you must be. The only advice I can give that I hope is helpful is to play the long game. You'll get the AFIB under control with your doctors. You'll get the oblation if you need it. You've got decades left to live and feel good. You'll get this. You've got this.

I really want to believe this, but the situation keeps getting worse as time has gone on.

every time I accept the problem, it somehow gets worse

edit: maybe it’s my healthcare provider is incompetent. I have Kaiser

Basics: Anticoagulant.
You. Lose weight now, wegovy and gaffa (mouth, fridge). Get your chf and fluids under control, diuretics and no more soda. Buy a digital scale that measures body composition, like withings or similar - learn your good phases with stable weight and fluid composition. Exercise what you can.
Doctor: evaluate EF and teatment options.
FoH: cheering for you. Don't give up dude - you have your life to win.

Had picked up some health insurance to try and help with the cost of my blood thinners. Says $25 copay for drugs without needing the deductible met. Cool. With the financial assistance, was able to bring that plan down from $600/mo to $200/mo. Not bad until I can get something from a job again. Well, I'm apparently too stupid to realize that there's tiers of prescriptions and that copay is only for tier 1 shit and mine is not that. So yeah, still had to shell out $300 for this month's supply of thinners. So frustrated with this shit. Parents offered to take care of it, but just one more thing I owe them, now.

Depending why you are on anticoagulants, you should ask your doc if Dabigatran (Pradaxa) would be an option - it is less popular than the big 2 Xarelto/Eliquis IMO mostly because of the way they first conducted the trials and worse marketing, but it is slightly older and has gone generic so I have found it to be substantially cheaper for some people. You might could first ask your pharmacy what the $ cost for Pradaxa would be instead and if it is much cheaper ask your doc if a switch would be ok.

Xarelto. GoodRX doesn't really do anything for it, last I checked. Going to try their patient assistance program again now that I have insurance and see if it changes anything.

I remember when they tried to put me on Eliquis. A much better blood thinner, less blood draws and less restrictions on food. Gave me a 90 day supply for free, but boy when that was up they wanted me to pay $300 a month for it. I was like nah, I will go back to coumadin and do my INR test at home.

It eventually got fully covered, so started on it, it was great, could eat green beans again, broccoli, drink all the cranberry juice I wanted. Then I failed on it, another PE and non collusive clot in leg. Back to coumadin. Will have to talk to hemo to see if there is another I can try that is at least 90% covered.

I'm just nervous about switching to something else. Naturally, I'd rather not be on any medications at all, but I at least know the Xarelto hasn't given me any weird side effects and shit over the past couple years I've been on it. Worried I'll switch to something that has some other formula and then start having issues. I don't really want to go on an RX carousel ride.
