Baby aspirin for FMD

Posted by Indigo64 @indigo64, Mar 4, 2024

I was diagnosed with lymphocytic colitis almost 2 years ago. The colitis was in remission. Then I had a Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection (SCAD) in October. I’ve been taking 81 mg of aspirin a day since then. Last month Mayo diagnosed Fibromuscular Dysplasia…treatment is aspirin. I’m having severe gas pains every night even though I take aspirin at noon. I’ve tried Beeno and GasX type products without relief. Does anyone else have this diagnosis & treatmentuu?

I also take 81 mg aspirin for FMD. I make sure to take it when I eat a meal to prevent stomach issues. Maybe that would work for you too.

Aspirin irritates GI tract, have you tried reducing stomach irritation with protonic or pepcid?
