Experiences with

Disprin

When I last saw him he said I had to continue on Disprin 75 mg or I would have a stroke. My GP thinks I should stop them . Some time ago I went to a lecture given by Professor Das Gupta and he said he doesn’t prescribe them. My platelets are usually on the low side.

I am still taking75 mgm Disprin as well as medication for asthma and under active thyroid. I am reluctant to introduce more pills but will follow advice. I have learnt such a lot from this group about managing my condition and would be grateful to hear of others experience of taking Lipitor.

In the mean time I've started on 500mg a day (Disprin) and follow up with the man on Friday.

I started on Prednosolne 40mg coming down to 12.1/2mg then up to 20mg, now 19mg.Over time I have come on and off Hyroxychlorine,Azathioprine and statins leaving just Pred and disprin.

I was unprepared for such a headache and am someone who never even takes a disprin. After that my vision was sensitive to light for at least 3 days and I couldn't work during that time.
