The Notch once again!

"Migraine with Aura often precede the strokes by several years.The responsible gene on chromosome 19 results in Mutations of the Notch3 Receptor protein."...(Zivin)

DON'T FIX IT IF IT IS NOT BROKEN

An 84 year man saw on TV an advertising about a new molecule in the nutritional supplement  (not FDA approved).  The molecule was said to "bust" blood clot and unclog circulation.  He figured that this new medicine must be better then Aspirin he was taking for clotting prevention.   He stopped Aspirin, and while waiting for the new drug, he developed a stroke.  The new medication failed to reverse the stroke induce hemiplegia....lesson to learn from...better prevent things, and keep on doing what works!
