I have just about totally given up caffeine of any sort in the past couple of months. I gave up Mtn.Dew over a year ago and switched my main drink to decaf green tea that I make myself. Up until my father had surgery in May I always made he and I a small pot of coffee when I arrived at work. Since he hasn't been here at work since the surgery I hadn't been making any, until this week. I have had one cup of coffee Tues, Wed and today and by 11:00am on each of these days I have had a terrible headache. Suppose I'll just give it up completely.

Interesting. Most heavy coffee drinkers get severe headaches from NOT drinking coffee (withdrawal symptom).

I can remember that happening from years back when I was taking it {caffeine} in all day but now that I hardly get any it seems to have reversed.

I have quit caffeine too. I think it contributed to acid reflux. I avoid this drug in all forms.

Caffeine headaches suck - they are the worst - I'm pretty much off all as well, for a few years now - the withdrawal headaches are not worth it

Nope-calm and cool as a cucumber. Maybe the caffeine spike is raising the bp though. I have only had the headaches the days that I have had that one cup of coffee and they hit about an hour after I have it all three times.

I haven't eliminated caffeine entirely but I have moved to decaf tea and I have coffee or Coke maybe once a week. I really don't know if it changed anything but I do "feel" better. Whether it's a real change or me thinking there was a change I don't know.

TC4ever,

Just for safety sake, you might want to mention this to your doctor at your next visit. Caffeine is a vasodilator, meaning it dialates blood vessels. Getting a headache from having your brain's blood vessels dialated could be a symptom of other things.

I gotta have my caffeine. I am trying to cut back to one coke a morning. Otherwise, I drink tea.

I'm not a very nice person if I don't have my coffee. I normally have a pot every morning and a pot every evening.

I never was a coffee drinker but I am a recovering Mt Dew addict. I have my occasional set back but I have never felt better now that I don't drink caffeine. No headaches and I actually have much more energy now that I'm caffeine free.
