What could the effects of heart problems be?

I have no symptoms just a question. I had a heart attack, stroke, and triple bypass in 2010. My blood pressure is high. What could happen if I would drink something like monster energy? Could this endanger my life and cause dramatic effects?

High caffeine content drinks can cause your blood pressure to spike, your rhythm to accelerate and your heart to work harder than it should. Not a good idea.
