5 hour energy

I have a need to take this. I have taken it pre surgery and had no adverse reaction at all. Just wondering if anyone who took it pre surgery and had no problems, did you have problems after surgery? If so, what kind of problems?

Please don't judge--I just want to hear from those who fit this sscenairo and hear your outcomes.

thanks

 I use them occasionally and have no problems what-so-ever.  The easiest way for me to get alert.. coffee takes too long to drink and isn't as fast acting, aside from the fact that I like calories in my coffee and this has none.

 I am on call frequently and have had really good results with 5 hour energy.  I am 5 months post op and have taken it since I was about 3 months out.  I have not had any issues.  I did take it at home the first time, just incase I had any issues.

I was told that I was not able to have caffine. Does 5 hr energy have caffine?

There is a decaf 5 hour energy available.  They're not always easy to find, but that's what I use when I need it.  It seems to work just as well.  Night shift plus two full time jobs equals some days where I get pretty run down.  :-)


HTH,

Thank you all so much.  I do avoid caffeine as much as I can, but that was even before surgery. I will look for the decaf version too.

I did take it this morning and so far so good! 

I truly appreciate your responses. I hope I did not come across sounding *****y.  I love this site and value all the input. But, as we all know, sometimes people tend to put their own two cents in and at times can be judgmental. OUCH! I got that a few times. I really just did not want to be judged, just wanted some solid info and that is what I got!!
