Coffee

[Suezer]

I have recently purchased a coffee pot. I used to drink the kind of coffee that you steap..like tea bags. I am wondering if the brewed coffee is more potent and perhaps causing my guts to move faster and such. Seems since I bought this coffee pot, I have been having issues again.

At first I thought my pulse was not working, Dr. had me up my Vanco for a few days and it did seem to help, but I do wonder if it isn't the coffee causing this.

I am going to try to give up the coffee and see if it helps. I am just wondering if anyone else is affected this way by coffee>?

YES! Coffee is a diuretic. I used to drink it before cdiff to keep me regular. I had to give it up for a while while dealing with this illness. I am having it again, but can't have more than one a day. And some days I can't even have the one. Some days I need a milder one. Each day is different for me. When you start having it again, maybe you could try to put less coffee in and see that helps.

I had to switch to decaf

Is the Coffee you are drinking caffenated? Is so you may want to switch to Decaf. I can not drink any thing that has caffeine in it. Since Cdiff it goes right through me!
