The last time I took an aspirin my eyes got swollen almost completely shut so I was told to avoid all drugs in that class to be safe.
I'm so glad you've looked it up!
I was quite sure you would check it out before swallowing any!
I am hopeful your docs will be able to help you more with your pain.

Depending upon the type of pain, sometimes a low dose tricyclic med or a different med used "off label" may help. As with any of our meds, we need to watch the interactions and any increase in the QT prolongation potential.

I hope you will achieve relief on all levels quickly.
I do know at least some of what it is like to suffer treatment-resistant depression (and pain) and my heart goes out to you.

Much Love to You and to Your Family
