1. Oh yeah
I can't drink coffee on an empty stomach, it makes me feel sick. I try to stay away from it in general.

2. No but I used to feel a funny kind of burn sensation in my chest...
Even drinking a half a cup of decaf, so I'm a tea drinker now...

3. i get it all the time
usually after the third cup, sometimes after the 2nd.

coffee is a stimulant and diuretic.

4. My first Americana at Starbucks did
It was like Russian Rocket Fuel running through my system, with the resulting slag to prove it - but I had no problems with subsequent ones :D

7. I agree about Starbucks
It's just bad, and certainly not worth anywhere near $3.50 a cup. I drink fresh ground home brew 99% of the time and it treats my sensitive stomach just fine. 2 full mugs a day with cream and a little sugar.

6. If I have lots
Or on an empty stomach, or really strong. All far far worse if I drink instant 'coffee' (which is very rare).

11. Oh yeah.
Especially on an empty stomach. That's why I tend to drink a lot more tea. One of my friends doesn't drink it at all because I think one cup will empty him out.

14. No offense.. But how can you have indigestion
on an empty stomach? Digestion requires food.

19. Wow, you're the first person I've known that didn't even like the smell
Although, my ex-GF used to live next to a Folgers plant and I got really sick of the smell after awhile. I still like it though.
