I know the feeling well. I really like carbonated water. At work I take a large 54 floz growler full to drink every half shift. It took me a while, after I started, to realize that I was inhaling concentrated CO2 before actually drinking. I was feeling awful as I went to take a sip. I have a habit now of blowing into the growler to empty it of CO2 after opening the lid, which works perfectly. It felt like you haven't taken a breath for 30 seconds.
