The caffeine in the drink is. What triggers your seizures

All the basic trigger that make me seizure.
Lack of sleep
Late on meds
Alcohol
Stress, depression , anxiety and anger

Then there are the the non basic seizure triggers., like
Over excitement ( from concerts sports events, and convention center events )
Big Holidays

Hubby drinks unsweet green tea that I make. It is decaf and does not seem to trigger szs. I try to guide him on what to eat and what not to eat. I would do some research on herbal teas since some natural things can trigger szs I have heard. Peppermint comes to mind as one of them
