Answer #1

If you haven’t done so, consult your DR on those headache spikes to make sure all is well…Merry Christmas !!

Answer #2

heeey..take the caffine out and drink water for a few days and see if the headaches stop..if it does, it was the coffee, if it doesnt, its sumthing else..

Answer #3

you are definately addicted and need to slowly decrease the caffeine intake to eventually none or sparingly. the head aches will stop after you stop drinking coffee, even awhile after. try to stay away from chocolate too for it also has caffeine

Answer #4

You are describing caffine headaches, so maybe you should try cutting down on your daily amount of caffine so you aren’t so dependant on it to get you through the day! There are other drinks that will give you a similar effect, such as, drinks with B vitamins (for energy) like Fuse Strawberry Guava, or maybe go find some vitamins for energy (drink lots of water when you take vitamins).

Answer #5

I DONT DRINK COFFEE BUT I ALWAYS HAVE A PEPSI ON HAND. I LOVE THE CAFFEINE AND THE SUGAR.
