Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Why did they withdraw Ecospirin for a stroke patient? Maybe INR was more? I don't know what was the situation which made your doctor withdraw it but for now it’s very important to start any blood thinner or if there any blood clot happens she can have a stroke again or dysphasia. Kindly go to ER and admit her.
Hope this information helps you sort out your problems. If you feel it’s helpful then kindly give me a user thank vote.
Happy Health!
