Hi. Quick break from the posting for a serious PSA.

Please have a bottle of aspirin in your home. Make sure the tablets can be chewed as well as just swallowed. Make sure you remove any fiddly foil seal and such. Don't use this aspirin for regular pain relief, just keep it around and know where it is.

Hopefully, you'll never need it and will just feel silly for having it. But if a bad time comes for you someday, being able to chew aspirin when emergency services tells you may save your life.

@danderson If you are on regular medication, please check if you can consume it without serious side affects!
Yes in a emergency situation life threatening things are always cared first (eg. Turnkeys). But please make sure if you’re preparing that you handle the least harmful stuff for you in your IFAK (Individual First Aid Kit).
I personally removed all my Aspirin from my personal Medical Bag, cause of other Medication im taking.

Please talk to your GP! I‘m just a random girl on fedi.
