Does decaf coffee make a difference?

Hello

I can definitely tell a difference. Decaf coffee gives me either very little or no pain while normal coffee causes a fair bit of pain.

I hardly drink either though. I have maybe four cups of normal coffee a year. And maybe six cups of fancy decaf a year.

Tea I don’t drink much of either but it doesn’t seem to be causing any issues whether it’s caffeineted or not.

I used to looooove dark chilli chocolate but avoid chilli like the plague now and that includes that type of chocolate. Gave me a very bad pain. I don’t eat dark chocolate (or milk really) by itself so not sure what it’d do.

Hope this helps.

I love coffee!! I have one weak one a day and I have been fine. Obviously occasional flare but it’s not caffeine that does it to me alone! I’ve heard decaf is no good bc it’s processed and not natural etc. I do notice some days after my coffee I may need to go to the bathroom but it’s nothing urgent and I think that’s normal for everyone anyway haha
