Yes I am coming to that conclusion. I have little theory of what is happening. I had a cortisol saliva test and in my morning before eating or drinking I have very high cortisol in the morning. Add coffee on an empty stomach to that.. I could see it causing a wave of stimulation that causes issues. Cortisol levels get higher with age. This could explain why it suddenly seemed to come on with age.

I am trying to taper the coffee to go off.
