Hello all! Has anyone had trouble with caffeine free soda giving them heartburn? I stopped drinking regular soda when I was diagnosed with fibro and lupus and switched to an occasional caffeine free Pepsi, but it seems it gives me terrible, all day, long-lasting heartburn the day after I drink it. Any thoughts?
gee Savana.. i really dont know. Personally i just avoid any foods or drinks that mess with my GI system.. all the best
HUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGS

Thanks Susie! ☺
Oh gosh, Savannahgirl, I'm sorry! I find that fibro heartburn is so different than non-fibro acid indigestion. I sometimes get it from my soda, but it's got caffeine in it. It seems to me that drinking too late in the evening will cause heartburn. Or if I use it to swallow my pills at night and tend to gulp them, that'll bring on the heartburn. But I'm not sure that you are having problems from similar reasons. It sounds like some ingredient in the caffeine free soda is causing the problem. Trying something else instead might be the best way to stop the problem.
P.S.: Do you get an awful taste in your mouth sometimes, along with the acid indigestion? I get a horrible charred taste in my mouth, like someone burned tires in my mouth. Do you get that too? It's disgusting tasting!
