i did drank coffee yesterday morning with hubby - that was fun..drinking with him in the morning... but then i was a nervous wreck the whole day. I could not understand why this happens to me everytime i drink coffee.. maybe i could just not take the caffeine?? caffeine i guess is bad for my system. my heart thuds like i am so scared for no reason, i jumped, i was a wreck. So i didn't have coffee this morning, just a glass of tap water with a bit of kalamansi together with breakfast.

Better drink tea. I regularly drink oolong tea. It's good for the health.

Caffeine really has an after effect of palpitations. That's what I usually feel after drinking coffee as well, that is why i try to minimize it as it is also not advised by my doctor. If you continue drinking early morning coffee with your husband, you should try decaffeinated ones or tea maybe instead of coffee.

I have the same habit before specially when I took brew coffee. But I love coffee that's why I have find something that I might be suit to drink. I tried some herbal coffee with no caffeine but it taste coffee too. Since then I never tried any kind of coffee I just stick with it. Try to find some coffee that with no caffeine if you still want to drink coffee.

I think you're experiencing palpitation my dear- better avoid coffee then. Next time drink milk instead and once again- I suggest, play some music

Im not sure this is just a hunch but maybe you have hypertension ... caffeine can rise your blood pressure dramatically if you have one. Or maybe your just sensitive to caffeine hehehe... Generally caffeine is not bad I read it has a more calming a relaxing effect if not abused (but i don't drink coffee or caffeinated drinks). Have a great day !

I am worse than you in drinking coffee. I would suggest others not to drink coffee but I am addicted to it lol. I knew it is bad for health and trying to reduce its intake by some means. Hope one day I will achieve it.

Hi jazel, don't get me wrong but I think you should see your doctor. I feel the same when I drink coffee I even palpitate so hard. Just last year, I was diagnosed with severe mitral stenosis (damaged mitral valve). I am 31 now and yet I only found out my heart condition last year which is too late already. This is not to make you afraid but for you to know the real condition of your heart since what you experience when you drink coffee is not normal. Happy mylotting!

Yeah, you should be because I am not a coffee drinker too...I take coffee so frequently ever since maybe once a week or twice in a month. I just shared my story since palpitation is not normal and I proved it myself. God bless!

I would be alarmed if i am a coffee drinker..but then i believe this is just due to the fact that i am not used to coffee at all but thank you for the info, that keeps me vigilant

Well, coffee does have that effect..it has different effects on people- for me, it makes me sleepy. WHy don't you just have milk instead. it is healthier and keeps your bones strong.

Yes, it is really weird, it has that effect on my father too. The first time i drank coffee, i thought i couldn't sleep but then i felt sleepy afterwards..I mixed it with my Koko crunch cereal..yum....my parents didn't know too..

I don't drink coffee anymore since I was 15. I have a polyps on my gallbladder and my doctor ordered me not to drink coffee and the likes as my stomach reacts badly due to caffeine. Since then, I gradually let go of my coffee every morning and have a tea instead.

good for you lance, i didn't know coffee or too much of it can cause polyps..this is new for me.
@Lance26 (956)

No no! it's not the coffee who have caused the polyps, it's just one of the doctor's orders not to take to. And one more thingwhen I drink coffee or the mere smell of it makes my stomach turns.

It used to happened to some people when they drink coffee.I used to drink coffee in the morning to wake me up.I love to drink coffee and so far there is no nervous effect every time I drink.Sometimes it made me sleepy more hehehe.

You drink coffee everyday so that it doesn't affect your sleeping more. Just try to stop drinking coffee for awhile and then drink it back. Sure you will lose sleeping for 1 night.

That's why you got problem when drink coffee again. Next time you don't drink strong coffee type, put more milk in it.

Omg, that sounds weird but I think you do the right thing by not drinking coffee again. I know I never understand why some people don't like coffee as I LOVE coffee but if it brings bad effect to those people, then I would love to ask them to stop. And you have made a right decision for yourself. Save your life.

You should stop drinking coffee. As what I've heard, drinking coffee will make you nervous. It is because of the caffeine which is not good to our body. I do not drink coffee too because it will make me more nervous when something bad happens.

Hi olliekobra1 , For me, both of the tea and the coffee are not good for our health. Coffee does have the caffeine and some of the teas do. Most of the teas I found in my local market contain artificial colors. I am very sensitive to artificial color because it can fail our kidneys and other bad impact to our health. Let's start having a habit to drink 100% fresh juices and blank water in our daily life.

The caffeine of coffee inside will affect our physiological systems,I am also very fond of coffee before,when a day i didn't having coffee,I would be very tired and feel sleepy,i really no effort to complete the day's work,and i will wreck too.So I am slowly learning not habit about drinking coffee,but each time after the coffee shop,smell about the incense of coffee, i really could not stand with the smell coffee...

There are a lot of people who do not do well with caffeine. If it makes you feel this badly I would say it is a good idea to skip it entirely. Some people do better drinking tea, though.

I haven't had a cup of coffee in about 3 years. It started bothering me in my throat and I decided I could live without coffee. I drink hot tea in the morning and any time I need warming up. I do miss coffee when we have cake or pie, and especially out in a restaurant since most don't serve hot tea. I drink lots of water!

Hello Jazel_Juan that's because it does make you nervous if you keep drinking coffee all the time. I remember it happened to me while back after getting a criticism from a caller who couldn't any information about our company which i previously work with.but i only drink coffee once in a morning and night. so, that's twice. well, have a nice day, good luck with kalamansi
@jazel_juan (15747)

i do not think i will last with the kalamansi,lol i would rather stick to water now.... and maybe hot choco.

They do say that if you drink to much coffee it can make you sad and moody

If you didn't drink coffee in a long time and nor drink it back, it maybe like that. You will feel nausea and cant do anything more. At that time, you should eat some food. And you may lost sleep because of coffee also. Better you choose juice or fruit instead of drink coffee. Have a nice day in there!

i do drink rarely that is, when i feel sleepy at the office i will have one cup and one cup is usually enough to satiate me..but i guess i am not used to having it in the morning as i was on the edge the whole day

Oh, better you drink coffee in the morning after breakfast, then it wont affect your sleeping. And never drink coffee when you are hungry also.

I avoid coffee a lot. Sometimes, when I have to work and my eyes are closing because i'm sleepy, a little coffe might do the trick. Otherwise it usually makes me kinda hyperactive. Maybe it's the fact that I drink VERY rarely coffee, and my body isn't used to the caffeine and reacts easily. I haven't really had any coffee in 2012 yet.:P

I don't think that having coffee is not bad. I think it is good for us but make sure that you don't have them a lot.

Yeah, you are right. Drink 1-2 cups of coffee is enough for a day.
