I heard it was good for you and recommended by doctors but thinking about it the if your body gets used to it after a while might not even work for you after a while because your body gets to used to it

Has anyone heard that taking a low dose asprin a day is no longer recommended?
I have been doing it for over a decade because my diabetes doctor said I should, but now I am wondering if I should look into stopping.

I think you should conform with your doctor what you should do. I take a baby asprin w/only 81mgs. I take it to thin my blood because I've agonizing abdominal cramps during my periods. I also have High blood pressure, & recently diagnose with Diabetes. I'm sticking with it till my doctor says to stop. You've been taking it for decades, has it kept you heathy? Access how taking asprin a day has kept you healthy.

I didn't know about this. I was always surprised that aspirin would be prescribed for daily use, even at a low dose due to other side affects, but not surprised that now doctors say something else. I would speak with my own doctor and look into alternatives

     Do not forget: Aspirin is a blood thinner.
     Is that good or bad for you? I really do not know.
     Some people take baby aspirin because it comes
     in low doses.

There was a write up some months ago about not taking an aspirin a day or in case you are in the middle of having a heart attack.

My , Mom still does per her cardiologist; it's just best to go with what your doctor recommends even though they tend to change their minds at times!
