better for the liver, worse for the stomach. It's a sliding scale, you have to decide how much you care about whatever hurts not hurting anymore versus damage to organs you can't even see.
Also i used to get wicked headaches from diet soda when i was younger, too. Is it possible to be "slightly" Phenylketonuric? I had to google the spelling, and it's interesting that "hyperactivity and behavioral issues" is listed as one of the symptoms. I doubt "slightly" is possible, that was tongue-in-cheek.
Also as an aside, for pain that the standard dose of ibuprofen doesn't seem to help, emergency medicine studies have found that an additional standard dose of acetaminophen alongside the ibuprofen has greater pain reduction efficacy than vicodin.
