I'd like to know the answer to this too. I had a very minor stroke last

December from Hormone Replacement Therapy. It was advised that I take either

a baby aspirin or a coated aspirin that is made for this. I didn't do it

because I was too scared so my doctor put me on a blood thinner for a couple

of months and now nothing, although he would like me to be on one baby

aspirin a day. Any suggestions?
