    Five years ago I had several TIAs (minor strokes) caused by taking Vioxx for a year to relieve arthritis pain (in my opinion, and I stopped taking it immediately). The doctor put me on a blood pressure medication that included blood thinner, and after that whenever I was cut I would bleed for up to an hour no matter what I did. He reduced the medication, though he kept me on 81 mg of Bayer aspirin, as well as a heart medication. Now the incidence of bleeding is less (though I haven't been cut lately either, as he burned off the mole under my arm that I often nicked when shaving). But I still get blood blisters when I get pinched by something on the hands or get bruised easily when I bump against anything.

    I am a 71-yr-old female Caucasian and I would have to say my level to between 1 and 2.
