Thanks for your thoughts. I am aware that I can stop taking both aspirin and Omeprazole if I am prepared to accept the risk of stroke at my age (It would be nice to know what that actually is) . I was hoping to hedge the risk by taking Pycnogenol which has some support for being better than baby aspirin in for cardiac and stroke prevention.

My plan going forward is to try Pynogenol for the next 30 days to see how I tolerate it while stopping baby aspirin and Omeprazole. I have appointments with my GP and Cardiologist in mid September where I will seek out their guidance and decide whether to continue or revert to an aspirin a day routine. I will let you know the outcome.
