Well I am now having 2 cups of coffee caffeinated a day. I just make sure I get enough fluids a day. I enjoy my coffee in the morning it def helps my exercising at the gym in the morning.

I was just wondering about coffee this morning. After surgery, will I be able to drink coffee at all?

My surgeon discouraged caffeine post surgery because he said it's an irritant to the stomach,and increases stomach acid production which might increase risk of getting a gastric ulcer. I'm not much of a coffee drinker anyway, now soda on the other hand, I will miss!

My surgeon said that caffeine is a natural diuretic and can lead to dehydration. I'm to avoid it for 3 months.

I haven't been much of a coffee drinker, but I will have a cup of Decaf once and awhile but I cannot have it because of my acid reflux is horrible even before and after surgery.

Acid is the problem. Does not dehydrate, the Water cancels out the caffeine. Don't figure coffee in your daily water intake, though.

Coffee has saved me from the repercussions of morning grumpiness many times.

I don't suggest anybody drink coffee it was suggested by my nut and surgeon to not drink coffee but I still do I did some research and I feel that it is ok for me. The main concern was that it is a diuretic and so causing dehydration. However I consume enough fluids to correct that. However like I said I do not suggest what I do for others to follow.
