    Also, it’s good to keep aspirin around because if you do have a heart attack you’re supposed to chew one 324 mg tablet right away this week greatly improve your chances of survival. Remember not to swallow it but to chew it! So make sure you have some regular tablets on hand for chewing and not the capsules! But I agree with the doctor do not just start taking aspirin without talking to your doctor but also keep some handy with you at all times if you’re over say 45 and unhealthy. You just never know!!

    I was diagnosed with A-Fib in June of 2012 at the age of 70 by my regular G.P. who put me on Metoprolol and Warfarin. She then scheduled an appointment for me to see the Cardiologist, whom I saw about six weeks later. The Cardiologist examined me and reviewed my test results and told me that neither he or any of the other Cardiologists wanted me on Warfarin. He told me to stop taking it and wait three days and then take one Baby Aspirin every night before bed. However, he did tell me to continue taking the Metoprolol. I am now 80 years old and still breathing. I walk 30 to 45 minutes every day and swim half a kilometer every other day. I have never experienced a pounding heart episode, except on those very rare occasions when I wake up from having a nightmare. Bottom-line, the thought of taking all those other drugs like Pradaxa and Warfarin is too scary for the likes of me.

      I live in Sweden, lived in 6 other countries and swedish healthcare sucks. Its just noone wants to be the odd one to point it out. Every swede I talk to is ok with it and find it normal ( duh, they either havent needed to use it yet or havent used healthcare abroad) and every foreigner says they hate it and go abroad for treatments ; I myself had to go to Greece to get x rays and healthcare. I used to live in Turkey, US , Israel, Lebanon and Greece all had way better healthcare. I agree people deserve minimum coverage for emergency cases and there should be some government support like in Turkey; but private healthcare drives quality up and gives good doctors motivation to stay in that country. Meanwhile I wait for a dental appointment for 8 months now. And an infection that they couldnt cure in 2 years ; finally went to greece, got in a pharmacy, booked a doc appointment in 2 mins; got antibiotics and voila. I just dont get it =D Otherwise Sweden is a great place so cant complain.

    yes i understand, anticoagulants makes any bleeding worse. but problem is, who decides to higher bleeding risk outweight reduced CA or stroke risk? if you feel advers effects of aspirine, you can basically leave it. But if you feel effects of a stroke, things gonna be bad.

    Aspirin chews up GI tract and arteries walls on a long-term basis. Take Pine Bark Extract or french Pycnogenol instead, to get the anti-sticking of the platelets without the corrosive and fatal aspect of aspirin. Vitamin E or Fish oil also help.

    • @ErikRichardsonDO

      prevention of PE is a different beast for sure. If it is a one time event but an unknown source, it is a bit of a grey zone. Some advocate more aggressive anticoagulation (coumadin, eliquis etc) while others not. In your case most would at least recommend an aspirin. A great question to always review with your doctor.

    Bleeding how? Bleeding where? Is this menstrually? When injured? Internally? I have watched a few of this Doctors videos, and am left unimpressed. It seems like he takes a popular subject, and skims the surface in information. I just feel these "informative" videos are anything but. Like going up to the front door and not knocking, much less going in. Just my experience though, for others this may work.
