Hi. I have high blood pressure but I love coffee. I always have! I wanted to ask if coffee affects your blood pressure levels negatively? Do you drink it? How to substitute?

I had a heart attack and bypass surgery and got told off for drinking too much coffee! I had to change to decaf and now I am used to it and it tastes ok. It’s taken some getting used to but I now only have normal coffee a couple of times a week. I also have AF which a lot of caffeinated coffee is a trigger .

Hi @Worsebuthopefull

How are you doing?If you are concerned about high blood pressure, remember to consult a doctor. But you ask a good question! I will tag a few members who may be able to share their experiences with you as it relates to coffee consumption and blood pressure.

Do you drink coffee? Does it affect your BP? Have you needed to change your caffeine habits to your help your blood pressure?

Share what you do!

@LizziB I have high blood pressure and am on Atenolol. We drink decaffeinated coffee together with decaffeinated tea. I am allergic to milk so drink black tea. I love my coffee and am afraid I could never give it up!
