is there coffee in my future?

I am allowed coffee however I find I cannot tolerate it. it tastes bad and gives me heartburn almost immediately. this is the only bad consequence of the sleeve for me. the whole experience of relaxing with a cup is gone. sure I can do tea or even hot cocoa but it's not the same. I am hopeful it is only temporary and in 6 -12 months I can have some again. oh well. this sleeve is not for wimps!

I drank Decaf after surgery (mixed it with my unflavored Protein, milk and a little splenda). The decaf irritated my sleeve more than caffeineated does. I now drink a cup in the morning, sometimes a second one later in the day. I try to limit my caffeine as more than 2 caffeinated drinks a day make me really jumpy.

update: about 3 weeks after post above and I can now drink coffee and no excessive acid or burping! thank goodness. I do like cream in it though so it's costs me a lot of calories so have to limit for that reason. but I am glad it is even possible! (11 weeks out now)
