Caffeinated coffee post-op

So I know some doctors say no caffeine, but lets get real. Some of us need our caffeine. Have any of you tried a cup of coffee in the morning and had any issues? Or does it seem to be okay? I was reading on the Unjury website that the chocolate mixed with a cup of coffee is nice. I think I'd like to try it.

I drink coffee in the morning when I get home from school and sometimes in the evening. No issues yet. But I can never drink a whole cup. So maybe 4 ounces at a time. Before surgery I would drink it all day long

I asked the same thing... I am a coffee achiever. I like mine plain and black. My NUT said it was okay 2 weeks post-op if I am getting all of my water in. If not, I have to have decaf.

It's my vice. I have a cup of coffee in the morning. I add extra water and if I have it, I found I can hit the treadmill in the morning and I need all the help I can get with exercise. I don't drink anything else caffeinated.

I have heard that caffeine can cause stomach ulcers. Have you tried 50/50?

It does not cause ulcers but can aggravate ulcers you already have

I have my coffee every morning and it hasn't bothered me in the least. I say go for it. If you don't feel well after drinking it, then you will know that you can't have it :D . I'm sure you've heard it's all really trial and error.

I add about two tsp nescafe to my vanilla Protein powder and a cup of skim milk in the morning. Love it

I also take skinny capuccino occasionally and it goes fine. Only a small one though

How far out was everyone when they started drinking caffeinated coffee? I am at 9 weeks and have been scared to drink it!

I'm 7days post op and I've had about 3 cups this week, but it's decaf and I can only have Splenda in it. It was on my approved liquid list
