A great pity doctors do not delve into patients medical charts the way they used to back in the 50's and 60's. I was prescribed aspirin after suffering a stroke - 3rd nerve. Three years later, I was vomiting blood on the floor and quarter filled a bucket with it! A consultant prescribed it. Told me to take one everyday (dispersible type) to prevent further strokes. I already had a heart problem from birth. Never took aspirin again but it was too late for me. I was due to go home after a two week stint in hospital, but ended up in HDU after developing Septicemia in an isolation room from a hospital virus. Thanks!
