Mayo Clinic – Aspirin
Dr. Virend Somers, is a Cardiologist from the Mayo Clinic, who is lead
author of the report in the July 29, 2008 issue of the Journal of the
American College of Cardiology.
Most heart attacks occur in the day, generally between 6 A.M. and noon,
Somers said. Having one during the night, when the heart should be most
at rest, means that something unusual happened. Somers and his colleagues
have been working for a decade to show that sleep apnea is to blame.
1. If you take an aspirin or a baby aspirin once a day, take it at
night.
The reason: Aspirin has a 24-hour "half-life"; therefore, if most heart
attacks happen in the wee hours of the morning, the Aspirin would be
strongest in your system.
2. FYI, Aspirin lasts a really long time in your medicine chest for years,
(when it gets old, it smells like vinegar). Please read on.
Something that we can do to help ourselves - nice to know.
Bayer is making crystal aspirin to dissolve instantly on the tongue.
They work much faster than the tablets.
Why keep Aspirin by your bedside? It's about Heart Attacks - There are
other symptoms of a heart attack, besides the pain on the left arm. One must
also be aware of an intense pain on the chin, as well as nausea and lots of
sweating; however, these symptoms may also occur less frequently. Note:
There may be NO pain in the chest during a heart attack.
The majority of people (about 60%) who had a heart attack during their
sleep, did not wake up. However, if it occurs, the chest pain may wake you
up from your deep sleep.
If that happens, immediately dissolve two aspirins in your mouth and
swallow them with a bit of water.
Afterwards:
- Call 911.
- Phone a neighbor or a family member who lives very close by.
- Say "heart attack!"
- Say that you have taken 2 Aspirins.
- Take a seat on a chair or sofa near the front door, and wait for their
arrival and ...
DO NOT LIE DOWN!
