I have taken prescribed aspirin, 325mg daily (not the baby tablet) for about 20 years. I have had Peripheral Atheroscrosis (both legs) for approximately 60 years. I am 81 years of age (a/o Feb 02, 2019). Know for your record that I have been going to the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida since 2002 for everything but occular problems. I am extremely active, climb stairs, climb ladders to 1 & 2 story commercial roof tops. I own and operate retail businesses. My circle of friends are in their 50's.
To be fair to your program, know that I have a blind spot in one eye that is attributed to a blocked blood vessel in the eye. The blindness affects only my center field of vision. The peripheral vision
is OK in that eye. The cause of the vascular blockage has been diagnosed, but the conclusion was that they have not yet developed sufficient information in this field. For occular problems, I go to the Bascom Palmer Hospital in South Florida (world famous for occular care).
Know that at 78.5 years of age I began to have current memory issues. I have no problem remembering things of the past. Diagnosis ruled OUT Alzheimers. I forget words but remember the definition of the word that I cannot verbalize. We are going to do cerebral/head testing to determine if this might be caused by damaged blood vessels. Should this be the cause, it would most likely be evident.
