[QUOTE="RichardNY, post: 139406, member: 21627"] Hi John, First of all good luck with your half year review. Don't be surprised if they don't encourage you to take Aspirin as Sue and Ken have already mentioned there are a lot of drugs that add to the effect of Aspirin. I was advised initially not to use Aspirin because of my passion for using Garlic in just about everything I eat (can easily us a whole Bulb a day). I didn't know until my GP informed me that Garlic was a natural Aspirin and if used in conjunction with a tablet form of Aspirin can have too much of a thinning effect. But these guys will have your blood panel in front of them and will be the only ones that can decide wether its a good thing for you. I for one didn't know Garlic was THAT potent, I just really used it to flavour food particularly meat/chicken/fish. Like you I'm in a very high risk group lots of heart problems down the family tree (various cardiac myopathy's) but now I'm on Aspirin as well as keeping to my cook everything with garlic method :lol: Just before Christmas my GP decided it was time for me to start taking it based on my latest blood test results. Just thought I'd throw the garlic thing in there. All the best. Richard. I'd also like to add to what Ken and Sue have already said - Dispersible is by far the better option. [/QUOTE]
