I love coffee, and used it during my TX.  But, I was very careful to drink even MORE water, since coffee is diuretic.

Thanks for the link Margo, I had heard that coffee could be benificial to the liver, but is strongly discouraged by my gastro doc, advice that I find as counterintuitive as him telling me that the only pain remedy I can take is  tylenol , which is  yet another compound ruinous to the liver.    

Sometimes I think that my gastro doctor is tryin' to do-me-in!  <./end-of-rant>
