Hi,

Understand that you are maintaining normal sugar levels because you are continuing with Glycomet which is a blood sugar lowering agent. As you are 64, you should also continue with Aspirin. In my opinion, you should continue both the drugs. You can also get your HbA1C checked and you can then get back to us.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Thanks.
