I've drank coffee most of my life, but have quit numerous times. The past two years I was drinking two cups a day. I must be allergic to coffee, because I get addicted to the stuff very quickly, and have very painful headaches when I miss a cup.

I'm ok now, no more headaches, and sleeping much better, and the prostate medicine has kicked in, so I'm only getting up to use the bathroom usually twice each night now, a coupld nights had to get up three times, and several nights only once!!!

Anyone with prostate problems should not drink coffee, becauase the coffee keeps the prostate from shrinking, even with medicine (coffee inhibits the prostate medicine from working).

There must be some connection with coffee and the chest pains that I was having, because I haven't had anymore chest pains since I quit drinking coffee. Now I can push myself a little harder ....
