I'm currently 2 weeks into a 40 day sugar fast. I had to work an unexpected cosing shift at my restaurant because we were short staffed, I NEEDED something to get me through, so for the first time in my life I bought and drank a coke zero over the course of my 5 hour shift. Since then (3 days ago) I have been having periodic heart palpations. Somewhere around 20 palpatations per day I would say.

I was diagnosed with a hiatial hernia when I was a teenager but haven't had any issues with it for many many years. I normally drink 1-2 coffee/day.

Has anyone else experienced this from only 1 coke experience with aspartame? I'm FREAKED out.
