There's so much we don't know about this yet. It's great to see new knowledge being generated! I had Covid last February (vaccinated and boosted, thankfully). It was a mild course, but I wound up sensitized to caffeine for three to four months after.
I normally drink 100-150mg/day, but I had to cut that back to 50-60mg and only in the morning. It seems to have passed, so I'm back on my drip.
- devin 1y agoI had the same thing with my caffeine sensitivity, but my nicotine sensitivity hasn’t gone back and it’s been over a year. I used nicotine lozenges daily for years but even after 12 months post-covid my body does not tolerate them.
- leetrout 1y agoThank you for sharing. I have the same thing and it is from my first bout with Covid in 2021. I have now had Covid 4 times and the caffeine sensitivity remains along with PVCs and chest pain. Brain fog has been almost debilitating and overall the impact on my career performance is noticeable.
- devin 1y agoHave you been getting the annual booster? There is no agenda or gotcha coming, I am genuinely just curious.
- djmips 1y agoMine has never recovered. I have to drink decaf now! I feel a small amount of relief that I'm not alone.
- MengerSponge 1y agoSlow Bloom's Decaf is the best I've tried, and I really like like Savorista's Swiss Water Ethiopian too. Both can yield a passable pourover. You can also find some good decaf black tea. Jones Coffee Roasters in Pasadena stocks some, and I'll see it online occasionally.
