Will poppy seed tea in the weeks before surgery cause any surgical issues?

tessalewis1Feb 23, 2014
I am scheduled for my BA in two weeks. I regularly drink a glass of poppy seed tea each night to help me sleep. ( seen it on the dr.Oz show) Will that cause any issues with surgery, anestisiology or recovery? If so, will stopping now until surgery suffice to mitigate any risk?

They generally take about 3-4 months to drop, although they may take longer depending on your body. Best of luck!
