Japanese knotweed and 81 mg aspirin

Dear Stephen,
I am on an 81 mg aspirin regimen by my doctor and am interested in taking the Japanese knotweed for some joint stiffness caused by lyme disease. Is there a safe dosage level for the knotweed due to the blood thinning effect of the aspirin?

Stephen’s response:
Yes, as far as I know.

Stephen

Is it ok to take the knotweed or cat’s claw for preventive?
