Get tested: Before you give up on tomatoes, get an ige blood test to see if you are allergic. Immunocap offers such a test. You can get it at quest labs. Maybe you are just having heartburn from the acid?

M.D. visit/workup: I would advise a detailed history outlining your intake and then possible reactions. If it is consistent with an allergic response, testing can be performed.
