Georgina is telling me that I can’t have tea to ease my post-op suffering because hot tea will cause my bleeding to bleed.

But this website (the online arm of The Lancet and endorsed by the AMA and the BMA) suggests that:

“A nice cup of tea and a sit down proven to cure all human ills”

So which is it? If only I knew a haematologist…

…I will just have to do the experiment for myself.
