Hello---i was wondering if anyone has been taking aspirin on a daily basis to prevent migraines from occuring.
The reason I ask is--i have been taking 3 extra strength excedrin(contains
caffeine). Daily for about 30 years !!--i am concerned because of the recently released results of a study suggesting an increase in pancreatic cancer in a group of nurses who also took daily aspirin.
If you are taking daily aspirin--will you continue ???

I know that if you take aspirin, tylenol or ibuprofen for a prolonged period of time and are not under doctors care it can cause liver damage and kidney damage. Check with your doctor. Smile
