but, if it takes hours for the aspirin to relieve the pain, and it lasts hours longer than the aspirin itself does, does that imply that i'm actually dealing with a blood clot and the effectiveness of the aspirin is in it's blood-thinning qualities?

is that why the tylenol is now ineffective?

is it why i experienced bruising after a two week delay?

does that suggest i'm in risk of a stroke? and, if so, is aspirin actually the preferred treatment, anyways?

hrmmn.
