Just one cup of tea?

Ok so I have behaved with pre op…I’m day 10…surgery is on June 29. Today, I’m really craving tea so I was wondering if it’s ok for me to have just one cup of tea which contains probably around 30 mg of caffeine?

Your pre-op guidelines don't allow you to have caffeine? If that's the case, why not have a decaf tea or a herbal tea?

You would have gone through the caffeine withdrawals/headaches by now, have caffeinated tea now may (or may) cause you to crave more and then you'd have to go through the withdrawal again.

In any event, why not have a quick chat with your dietician or nutritionist (or doctor) as to going without caffeine at this stage is important or if in fact one or two drinks won't hurt.
