Bruce, My husband had a heart attack about a year an a half ago. He recently thought he was having another one but it turned out to be gas. Very difficult to distinguish the feeling between the two. He takes one aspirin a day along with other meds. But if he is feeling like he is having aheart attack, he is to take, or is given in er, nitroglycerine tablets sublingual every 5 minutes. I have heard of some people who take one aspirin in the morning and one at night. I think it depends on how thick your blood is as aspirin has a thinning effect on the blood. Vitamin E has also been shown to have a similar quality. Hope I have been of some help to you.
