I saw a new primary care dr. today and she asked if I took a daily baby aspirin. I explained that post RNY, NSAIDS are not recommended. She understands, but with the small dose I wonder about the risk vs benefit. Stroke

I know exactly what to do, and I know exactly where the problem lies in terms of the food that goes into my mouth.
