    If the pain continues I would consult a doctor. I drink carbonated water sometimes but have not had any pain. I found a few articles that suggested that carbonated water makes the kidneys work harder and excessive carbonation could contribute to kidney stones but they did not cite sources so I can't say 100% if it's accurate or not. I do remember reading about one ingrediant in the Clear American (Walmart) carbonated waters causing problems for dialysis patients but I can't remember the specific ingrediant.

    Well I don't know. Like I said basically I carbonate my own water using a soda stream. It's genuinely just normal tap water with fizz. All I add sometimes is a small amount of fruit juice to give it flavor if I'm in the mood.

    Anyways. Thanks for all the replies everyone! I'll see how it goes. :)

    Yes Carbon & Oxygen are bad for you, hydrate yourself quick! Drink some Perrier, oh wait?!?

    So you're ok with carbon monoxide (CO) then?

    Two scientists walk into a bar. one says "I'll have some H2O" the other says "I'll have some H2O too". He died.
