Have any of you had a heart attack and then returned to training?

i take a 325 mg aspirin every day to help thin my blood.

Even 100mg would be too much for the digestive system.

Just one 325mg is enough to thin your blood for 2 weeks.  You better hope you don't get into a serious accident... you'll bleed to death.

Bull....before acetaminophen everybody used asprin.
If you overdo it and are susceptible to it you'll may end up with internal bleeding, but every drug got it's complications....

It's still a terrific medication, I prefer it over acetaminophen when I have a minor inflammation thing...better than nurofen/ibuprofen, which may hurt your stomach as much, and your heart and kidneys even harder.

More Power To Asprin !!

Nothing wrong with aspirin in moderation. Even folks on low dose aspirin are supposed to skip it for several days before any surgical procedure.

Cocaine was once used as a medication....these things change as we become more knowledgeable about them. Whiskey was used as a pain killer once upon a time too. Guess if you drink enough whiskey, that still works.

"In 1887, the US Surgeon General recommended that cocaine be used to treat depression, claiming that there was no such thing as cocaine addiction." http://www.narconon.org/drug-information/cocaine-circa-1860-1900.html

From what I remember, you should not just abruptly stop long term low dose aspirin therapy. You are susceptible to heart attack coming off.

Most of the bad reputation for Aspirin came from children who are prone to develop Reye's Syndrome.

If you as a child had developed no problems from taking Aspirin, there is no reason to take Tylenol.

Rarely take any pain meds, least of all Tylenol. It is particularly bad for one's liver.

Do yourself a favor and buy 'baby aspirin' that is a huge dose. I don't even take that much aspirin when I run ECA.

If I took that after two days I'd get nosebleeds.
