Thompson Yes, I have heard Red Wine is great. On ocassion, I do that route. Unfortunatly when I am sitting in front of these damned computer monitors and screwing around on FT and other websites, one glass turns out to be two, two turns out to be three, etc. Then it turns out "The hell with the glass, just grab the bottle. Much easier." Then I notice the bottle is empty. What was it that Bob Maar said: "One, Two, Three, Four, and your are on the floor." How true this can be. Been there too many times.  |  IP: Logged Dave Williams Wet nipple scene Posts: 1836 From: Salt Lake City, UT, USA Registered: Jan 2000 posted 06-17-2004 12:25 AM                        325 mg? You're a lightweight! Try 2000 mg three times a day for three weeks six times a year! This was a regimen that was used years ago when I was first diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. The intent was to flood the system with aspirin, with the intent on confusing the immune system to attack the high levels of aspirin, instead of the bodies tissues. It worked to a certain extent, but too many other health problems ensued. Mind you, I did like moving as opposed to not moving, as it was quite severe. And this was long before the advent of type 2 nsaids, which now are the preferred treatment of even the most severe cases. Now my aspirin use is both to keep my blood thin, as other meds seem to thick it up, and also some pain killing effect as well. Meds suck, and I hope that someday soon they invent a way to just cure all this damned stuff. Oh wait, there's money in them thar patients! Can't cap the well now can we! Anywhoo, Keep up the caution paul, i empathise with you, same crap happens to me sometimes. C C Ciao Dave  |  IP: Logged Paul G.

A dose like you described must have been to the point that even a strong wind would have done to your arms and back of your hands like the mechanical stuff did to me.  |  IP: Logged Gerard S. Cohen Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 975 From: Forest Hills, NY, USA Registered: Sep 2001 posted 06-17-2004 12:15 PM                     As John indicated, the usual dosage for heart health is one "baby" aspirin of 81 mg per day. This dosage was prescribed by my cardiologist. The little yellow pills are coated, and sold generically in big plastic jars at very modest cost by Costco, drug discount stores, etc. Since I have trouble remembering when I last took my medication, I invested $0.99 in a plastic 7-day calendar pillbox. I got larger ones for my sister, and there are variations for those taking medication up to 4 times daily, and some that hold pills for an entire month. A calendar pillbox that my medical supplier charges $35 for costs only $6.49 at a chain drugstore.  |  IP: Logged Dave Williams Wet nipple scene Posts: 1836 From: Salt Lake City, UT, USA Registered: Jan 2000 posted 06-17-2004 01:02 PM                        I was tied down in my wheelchair pretty good, hard for the wind to get hold of me. But it did after about six months allow for me to get much more mobile than I was, and was able to ditch the chair. Only been back in the thing a few times in the last 20 years so it did what it was supposed to do, but it did make me very weak and easy to get injured or ill on other counts. Even 20 years ago medicine only was to a point where it was treat the problem with a bigger problem just to relieve the first problem. We have come a long way since. Ciao Dave  |  IP: Logged
