If the aspirin is the "Children's size" of 80 mg, then the extra Vit. C ought to help quickly. Vitamin E and garlic are also blood thinners.



My thanks to everyone who is helping me.

I have been taking full-size aspirin because it is easier to have on hand, but I will go to the smaller size and see if that helps. I've also recently moved from a much larger size of vitamin E to the 200 size - that may be a contributing factor that will take some time to overcome. In the meantime, I'll also check out vitamin K supplements and take another C tab. I really appreciate these ideas! I was wondering what I was doing wrong. Thank you!
