Yes: Stop taking it. If you need something else for pain try Acetaminophen. If still sick please see your physician.

Sure: It sounds like you have underlying Acid indigestion, heart burn, or reflux disease, etc. For Now,...Hold off on aspirin and nsaids (like Ibuprofen) and see your dr. for an appt and eval. Best wishes.
