The Romanian doctor (I've forgotten her specialty.  Is she rhuematologist?) has the ability to prescribe blood thinners, doesn't she?  I think you are worried about quitting the blood thinners in September.  I think I would be.  At the very least, I would want assurance that a baby aspirin would be enough, and if it isn't enough, then I would want to know that, too. You have a condition that makes clotting more likely.  Why would they wait until after a crisis?  Are they thinking clearly?  Or maybe just following protocol for populations without complex conditions?

I don't think I'm making sense this morning.     Where's my coffee?

I was thinking along the same line as Forest. Why would they wait for a crisis to give bloodthinners. In fact also here progress is emerging and there are bloodthinners that do not need checkups and hardly have side effects. But of course aspirin can do a very good job too.
Indeed in your case you do need the right dose. But that is something the doc would be able to say with all her experience.
