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

Asked By:tessalewis1 in Pittsburgh, PA

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?
