I’ve read that you can drink decaffinated tea or coffee after surgery but not caffinated tea or coffee. Is this true? I drink caffeine everyday, so if this is true, I’m going to be having a hard time with that. What did you all do to get through caffeine withdrawal?

If I remember correctly, I totally cheated and drank it anyway.  I’m not advising anyone to do that though.  I bet if you slowly wean yourself off it now you’ll have fewer side effects to deal with.  Just cut back a little day by day until you’re no longer relying on caffeine.

I remember cheating some, too. I don’t think that’s the best answer. I think Roo’s idea is a good one – cut back a little at a time now until you’re not consuming caffeine at all. I know it’ll be very difficult, but I have faith that you can do it!

Yes, caffeine is a no-no. I believe decreasing the amount day by day is the best approach if you’re so used to it. If it’s energy that you feel lacking, maybe adding more proteins can help you last longer.

Have you started the detox process?
