Jill Pill 61 Posted January 15, 2015 My surgeon said Dr Ariel Ortiz said there are 12 health benefits to coffee and it was fine! Being a nurse we give coffee on a clesr liquid diet all the time! I started having a little bit in my protien shake like a mocha post op day 7 ! I had no problems however i made some fresh ground expresso roast this morning and feel quiet nauseated! Take it slow !

JamieLogical 8,725 Posted January 15, 2015 My surgeon said Dr Ariel Ortiz said there are 12 health benefits to coffee and it was fine!

I had no problems however i made some fresh ground expresso roast this morning and feel quiet nauseated! Take it slow ! Ariel Ortiz was my surgeon as well and Lucia specifically told me no coffee until 30 days PO, so you are being naughty by not following her guidelines! Don't worry. I won't tell. She did say to make sure to use cream or milk in my coffee to dilute it once I started drinking it at 30 days, so if you are going to be drinking it early, maybe just try that to dilute it and tone it down some.

ProjectMe 909 Posted January 16, 2015 I was also told not at all by nutritionist and surgeon. They said something about how caffeine is real hard on the stomach lining, increases hunger, and is a diuretic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

athena3127 199 Posted January 17, 2015 Had my first cup day after surgery once I was cleared from leak check. Now I have one to two cups in the morning and I add Protein mix Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karenlrn 41 Posted January 18, 2015 I can't have regular coffee. I was recently cleared to have decaff coffee. I liked it before surgery so I looked forward to it. I didn't like coffee anymore. I like tea now. I didn't like tea before surgery. I drink Decaf. I'm not sure if I want caffeine when I can have it. Getting off it was so hard-bad headaches etc. I don't think I ever want to be caffeine dependent again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
