Aspirin is a natural blood thinner - which can stop the blood from clotting.
Be sure that you know what your platelet count is and what it should be before you start taking aspirin. Aspirin can cause me to bleed to death internally.
Hep C at any stage starts to effect your platelet count. If you've had the chemo-therapy treatments for Hep C, you may have a lower platelet count. It's been a couple of years since it was drawn out as a picture so I don't remember all of it. The plateletts get trapped in the spleen, instead of being released into the blood stream --
Another "thought" motrin, ibuprophen, and tylenol are all metabolised by the liver and are extrememly hard on the liver.

Have you heard of Olive Leaf as a hep C remedy? I used it briefly and reduced my counts by a large amount but the Dr talked me into the interferon which I regret immensly. I took the olive leaf (anti virus/anti fungal) along with the aminos for liver repair and milk thistle. I heard about the Olive leaf from a women with a holistic store in NH.
Also, do you have a remedy for interferon poisoning?
Thanks
Laurie
