yup, heartburn. and it isn't normal by any means, you are damaging the lining of your esophagus, which can lead to serious erosion and bleeding. Suggest that you need your rest more than you need to stay up late for the sake of your health. Heartburn, or gastro esophagel reflux isn't a small thing, it can lead to complications that can kill you.

The coffee may be causing the heartburn. There is a condition called GERD. It is gastroesophogeal in nature and causes a burn. If your supplements have caffine in them, they can contribute to the heartburn.

That used to happen to me also, I would feel the pain in my lower back, and a burning pain in my stomach. My dr put me on prilosec and it stopped. It was Gerd/Acid Reflux for me.
