Having one during the night, when the heart should be most at rest, means<br \/>\nthat something unusual happened. Somers and his colleagues have been working for a decade to show that sleep apnea is to blame.<\/p>\n<p>1. If you take an aspirin or a baby aspirin once a day, take it at night.<br \/>\nThe reason: Aspirin has a 24-hour &#8220;half-life&#8221;; therefore, if most heart attacks happen in the wee hours of the morning, the Aspirin would be strongest in your system.<\/p>\n<p>2. FYI, Aspirin lasts a really long time in your medicine chest for years, (when it gets old, it smells like vinegar).<\/p>\n<p>Please read on.<br \/>\nSomething that we can do to help ourselves &#8211; nice to know.<br \/>\n \u00b7 Bayer is making crystal aspirin to dissolve instantly on the tongue. They work much faster than the tablets.<br \/>\n \u00b7 Why keep Aspirin by your bedside? It&#8217;s about Heart Attacks &#8211; 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.<\/p>\n<p> \u00b7 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.<\/p>\n<p> \u00b7 If that happens, immediately dissolve two aspirins in your mouth and swallow them with a bit of water. Afterwards:<br \/>\n*Call 911.<br \/>\n*Phone a neighbor or a family member who lives very close by.<br \/>\n*Say &#8220;heart attack!&#8221;<br \/>\n*Say that you have taken 2 Aspirins.<br \/>\n*Take a seat on a chair or sofa near the front door, and wait for their arrival and<br \/>\n*DO NOT LIE DOWN!<\/p>\n<p>A Cardiologist has stated that if each person, after receiving this e-mail, sends it to 10 people, probably one life could be saved!<br \/>\nI have already shared this information. What about you?<\/p>\n<p>Do forward this message.
