Sport Bananas and burning sensation?

Sport Fitness
I was just wondering if anyone had ever eaten a banana, say in the morning before going to work or school and a little while after eating it, your chest and stomach start to get a burning type sensation? I have noticed that sometimes when I eat one, it's almost as if my chest is tightening up a little bit. Could it be because of the potasium? (I know I spelled that wrong).
 
Never had it happen, and I eat bananas every day.
 
chest tightening up? that sounds more like a mild allergic reaction to me, maybe to something sprayed on the banana, rather than the banana itself? like a preservative for shipping, or, ack...a pesticide?
 
I guess I should reword it. It isn't really like a chest tightening up feeling, I guess it could be described more as like a heartburn or indigestion feeling? Maybe from eating too fast perhaps? It doesn't happen always, just once in a while. But maybe I'm not chewing it enough and I'm swallowing too fast, consuming too much air.
 
that almost sounds like acid reflux. might be worth checking out if it happens real often. however if you can pinpoint it to certain foods, maybe when you have an empty stomach, then its not a big concern.
