My surgeon never said anything about caffeine but I keep reading about it on here. I have one more meeting with him prior to surgery and will ask about it but in the meantime, can someone please explain the reason?

I start my preop on Monday. Heaven help me...... Lol

I got mine from this site. I bought 2 cases and each one had 15 different flavors.

Plus, if you go into caffeine withdrawal, the headaches can be brutal. Not something I would recommend going through while also trying to recover from surgery.

Which flavors are good?

I haven't tried any yet bc the post-op people keep saying that my tastes will completely change post-op.
