The nurse is caring for a 33-year-old client who has been taking aspirin for back pain and has experienced a sudden episode of tachycardia and feeling faint. The client also vomited coffee-ground emesis and passed a tarry stool but has no complaints of pain or heartburn. The client wants to know why there was no sign of pain as a warning signal prior to the sudden bleeding. What is the nurse’s best response?
