And that's exactly what she did, twice, about 70 posts ago, when she
posted

"isn't that a question you should ask your Dr

then

"Anyone who says he's had a liver transplant needs to refer his med
questions to his doctor. Too many reasons why to bother listing.
Goomba -a critical care nurse"

as you should recall, since you responded to that post.

In yet another post Goomba further underlined that he needed medication
advice specific to liver transplant and its implications, with

"How many others here have had a LIVER TRANSPLANT and can speak about
gout meds and implications with any experience? Really???"
