One way to help prevent strokes or to make them less harmful is to take an aspirin a day. My doctor has me on the 81 mg to 325 mg aspirin, one a day before bedtime.
The dosage varies with age, heart history, blood clot history, etc.
Check with your doctor is your mother was not on an aspirin schedule.
I survived a heart attack (clogged artery) and cardiac arrest with very minor injuries except my artery needed several stents. I use blood thinners, salt regulators, watch what I see (some of it looks back at me if it is not well done), and try to get some exercise.
Lots of new medicines out there for heart/stroke patients. best wishes for a speedy recovery.
I wonder if they will have the blood thinner plus the aspirin. Either one is fine. At this point it’s about giving her quality of life and comfort.
Vanderbilt just had a study that 325 may be better actually
I’m in it.
