@carol1024 I was told that aspirin was no longer recommended as effective and that the risk of bleeding (GI) outweighed any possible benefit. Two regular aspirin at night seems like a lot! Did your MD tell you to do that? In 2015 after a bad episode of afib I was told to take one regular aspirin for a month. Docs no longer tell me to do that. Hope you feel better!

Just be careful as aspirin is very hard on stomach lining and digestive trac . Baby aspirin ok but the 2 reg in evening May eventually give your stomach lining issues .
