When I drink, too much caffeine, I begin to get weak and feel shaky. What's wrong?

Question

If I drink 2 cups of coffee rather than the usual 1 cup, I begin to feel weak and shaky. I know it has something to do with my blood sugar and the amount of caffeine. But is this normal? and if not should i get checked by a doctor? Why does my body react this way?

Answer 1

WELL.. as you might kno caffeine has something called SUGER in it and drinking too much will can cause shaking because your body cant handle that much you might think your waking your self up in the morning with 2 CUPS of coffee you are seriously retarded your body will get shaky b/c you have so much sugar then u get weak b/c your body goes in like overload and crashes, trust me I'm on the swim team and once i drank an energy drink and got all energized b4 my BIG race but b4 i even started i crashed and did horrable on my race it sucked, but anyways NO you dont have to ask your doctor its really a big consern just stick to 1 CUP and you will be fine theres no reason to be drinking 2 anyway

It is just that, too much caffeine. It is normal of too much caffeine. Anything that makes you feel like that isn't good. Some people are just more sensitive to it than others. The best way to deal with it is just not to drink more than your body can handle. If you need a second cup, have decaf. If you drink it to wake you up, have a piece of fruit instead. The sugar in fruit should have the same effect as caffeine only without the stuff that has that kind of reaction. Good luck!

Sometimes when you drink to much caffeine it is like drinking straight sugar. It ups your sugar level . I would get checked just in case. You could also try to stay away from caffeine just to see if your body reacts better to not having it. It could cause low blood pressure to.

Answer 5

You are consuming too much caffeine and you might want to think about cutting back before it does something to you. Your heart is pounding because the caffeine is speeding it up. If the problem does not go away after you cut back on your caffeine then I would suggest to go and see your family doctor immediately if after office hours of your family doctor then go to the ER if gets worse.

Coffee might wake you up, but it is unhealthy in so many ways. It is bad for your teeth, body, and brain. I say drink a good glass of milk or orange juice and you will feel much better. To get rid of all the problems coffee has left you, go to your dentist for your teeth, and your doctor for a reccomendation on your body & brain.

Answer 7

Obviously you are drinking to much caffeine for you awn circumstances. I would most certainly advise consulting a doctor just in case. You only have one life, and the penalties for being careless with can be severe.

Answer 8

I dont usually drink coffee, or consume caffeine through anything else. if i do, its probably minnimal amounts.

When I do drink coffe - maybe once ever other month - I also feel shakey.

I dont think its a serious probelm but if it worries you too much, give the doctor a call. ( no need to make an appointment ...just give him a call.)

Woohoo! Whatcha' doin?! Huh? Huh? Tell me. C'mon, tell me! J/K. I only get shaky if I drink coffee with nothing in my stomach. Otherwise, bring on the strong coffee! The kind that puts hair on a girl's chest!

Answer 10

I would say you're having a bit of a caffeine overdose. It may be related to your diabetes if you have it, but it doesn't seem much to worry about. If you really want that second cup, just switch to decaf, and you'll be fine.
