Drinking coffee before blood test can affect the results of tests that measure blood sugar and cholesterol levels. Coffee contains caffeine that is easily absorbed into the system at a fast rate. Caffeine can temporarily raise blood sugar levels resulting to an inaccurate fasting blood sugar (FBS) result.
When fasting for blood work can you drink decaf coffee? No. When fasting for any reason, the only thing that is permitted (and check with your doctor, as blood work is different than, say, surgery) is water, and only to take mediâ¦cation (again, if permitted by your doctor) A fasting status means nothing by mouth at all. This includes, of course, decaf coffee. If one doesn't fast the results of the lab tests could be completely wrong, and the doctor was under the impression that you were fasting. If you accidentally or for some other reason don't fast, MAKE SURE you alert your doctor right away.
