bluehiroko,

You'll have to try and see how caffeine affects you, I still love my espresso drinks and have found that using decaf espresso beans will satisfy my need without twitching like a chihuahua for hours afterwards.

I, too, have tried green teas, but they also contain caffeine, but there are some decaf green teas too. Try various kinds and see how they taste.

For me, caffeine makes my sensitive brain too zingy and twitchy so I only have maybe one cup of caffeine a week, otherwise it's decaf.

Mike

December 15, 2009: Major surgery due to diverticulitis. 6 weeks after surgery, dizziness, fog, cognitive difficulty, anxiety, some panic, lots of headache. These symptoms largely gone, but still cannot exercise above a very low threshold otherwise resulting in severe headache and cognitive fog. Same for overwhelming odors.

Meds: Nortriptyline and Naratriptan as needed to rid severe headaches (exertional migraines).
