Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | burping/bloat question...

hello. i have a question...
i just drank some orange & spice decaf tea and now i'm burping and feel somewhat bloated and even feel like i need to go to the bathroom (#2). i ate lunch about 4 hours ago, so i can't imagine it'd be from that. for lunch i had veggie soup with pasta in it and some sourdough bread, but felt fine after eating it.
burping has always been my main symptom...it's like i get real bloated in my stomach and throat and have to burp and it can go on for hours...it's continuous, like i just have to get "it" out of me or i'm gonna blow up! it ends up giving me a headach, dry mouth, and makes me feel like crap. i've read a lot of posts that talk about bloating, but does anyone have bloating like this, that makes them burp a lot? i've been following the diet pretty closely...although i have slipped a little here and there, but for the most part been eating safe foods and feeling pretty good. then when i get these symptoms from out of nowhere it weirds me out. i didn't feel crappy until after i drank the tea. could it have triggered something i ate at lunch...since my soup had cooked veggies in it?
please help!!!
