What Causes Lower Leg Pain While On Eliquis And Cardizem?

June 24, 2017 I was hospitalized for new onset a-fib. I m currently taking cartizem er 120mg by mouth daily and eliquis 5mg by mouth twice daily. (otherwise healthy 57yr old male before this dx, non-smoker, on no other medications) My HR went into a regular rhythm july 11,2017 , heart rate ranges from 52-59 at rest now, BP s normal range. I have been having lower leg pain, not cramping. Pedal pulses good and have hair on legs and feet. Could the leg pain be a side effect of the medications, or what would be causing this?
