Caffeine - 5 months post op

I've been having decaf coffee with a lot of milk until about 3.5 months post op, then then the occasional normal coffee which has been fine and not affected me much. I've also been drinking, not much, but gradually trying out different things to see how I get on. I tend to stay away from Tia Maria as it kept me awake the last time when I had just a small bit later at night after a night out.

Stupidly I didn't even think yesterday when I ordered a carajillo (which is a short of coffee with a dash of something in it, usually brandy, but I had tia maria in mine). Well.... I literally had the shakes right afterwards, and honestly last night couldn't sleep very well at all.... now if I'd ordered this in the evening I could have understood it, but this was in the afternoon - lunchtime, about 3pm!

It's amazing to see how just a little caffeine can now affect me....I'll not be doing that again, as I've got up early this morning totally knackered with loads of things I need to do today, but knowing I'll need to rest later!!
