Iced tea w/ lemon - burns?

Hi everyone,

I think I'm identifying something that isn't agreeing with my tummy, that I never had a problem with before: iced tea with lemon!

Has anyone else has an issue with this? I don't think it's the tea, I really think it is the lemon, as I've had hot tea with no problems, and iced tea with no lemon, no problems.

When I drink it, I can actually feel a discomfort in my stomach. Is this common?

Thanks!

No, I'm on solids. I had my lunch today, waited an hour, drank my water first, then went and got an iced tea with lemon from Sonic (since I can't drink any soda). I only took a couple of sips (not with the straw) and I could feel it.

Sometimes wine does this to me - most particularly on an empty stomach. And the other thing that does it is potato chips!

Might be reflux developing (citrus, spices, alcohol, etc. make the burning worse). It's a very common banding side effect so keep an eye on things.
