I have thallasemia minor and have been taking a baby aspirin for about a yr. Many times I would get light headed if stood up quickly. I recently had to stop the aspirin for minor skin surgery. I have not been light headed since stopping the aspirin. Is there a connection I should be aware of being thalasemic and taking aspirin?
Dear I read your scenario. It's not good to take aspirin for minor headache because there are other Chat Doctor.  Aspirin has antiplatelet activity which can causes bleeding and further worse the thalassemia picture. So you should be very careful about aspirin. Hope you will follow my suggestion, and you can ask more question regarding this issue otherwise you should go near by doctor. Thanks for asking.
