Based on the information provided, I cannot definitively say whether you have taken aspirin recently despite stomach discomfort. However, I can provide some context about aspirin and its potential effects on stomach health.

Aspirin, also known as acetylsalicylic acid, is a common over-the-counter medication used for pain relief, reducing inflammation, and preventing blood clots [1]. While generally safe for most people, regular use of aspirin can lead to stomach discomfort, including pain, ulcers, and bleeding [2].

If you have been experiencing stomach discomfort and have recently taken aspirin, it might be a good idea to consult a healthcare professional for advice. They can help determine whether the aspirin is causing your stomach issues or if there might be another underlying cause [3].

In summary, while I cannot confirm whether you have taken aspirin recently despite stomach discomfort, it is essential to be aware of the potential risks associated with aspirin use, particularly in relation to stomach health.
