Is caffeine safe post-op?

Asked By:MandyL147 in Albuquerque, NM

I am 10 days post-op of a breast augmentation, and I am dying for a cup of coffee! I am not a coffee drinker, but a tea drinker instead. My doctor told me no tea 2 weeks prior and post op because of the caffeine, but I'm wondering about coffee. Any suggestions?
