I apparently have what the GP calls a "mitochondrial disease" which leads to all my muscles getting weaker and weaker - hence my contact with the incontinence nurse who advises zero caffeine.  She's right about the effect on my bladder but that doesn't help with BG.  Which is more important?  The bladder thing is an inconvenience, but the BG thing can be dangerous.  No contest, I suppose.  Maybe I should only drink water.We only have Tesco and the Co-op here and neither of them sell decaf loose tea.  Online it is ridiculously expensive.From what I can gather, the process of taking caffeine out of tea and coffee shouldn't add anything that would affect BG but there is no doubt that it does (for me anyway).</blockquote>
