Here's how interpretation varies!

You posted a separate hread to ask how much to eat. You didn't tell us which surgery you have had. That may not be about dramatic blood loss or severe pain. But you are asking us, without knowing anything at all about you, to offer suggestions or advice when the only sensible answer is "follow your doctor's plan and if you don't know what that is ( and you should know), ask him/her. 

So you tell us not to judge, but in this thread you have judged.

You criticise us for offering sensible advice.

For all u that are getting offended I suggest u read the post again. They question was how do u feel about OH.  As I said b4 I've had good n bad experience here, like u guys are advising I suggest u take ur own advice if u don't like what I say then move to the next forum. Like really.  I wanted to know if there were more ppl liking OH or not. 

Exactly who ever don't like it that's to bad like I said if it doesn't apply let it fly. You know what funny that now ppl have things to say great!  That's what I'm talking about. 

So if someone comes here and says they have been having bleeding from one of their incisions for a week, or has not been able to keep anything solid down for 3 days, or wants to know why their surgeon requires 8 weeks of liquids before or after surgery, or has been making their shakes with ice cream because otherwise it makes them sick, etc. etc., etc., are you saying that we should NOT tell them to contact their surgeon??

Usually, people respond by saying "ask your surgeon" because that is the best answer!

Please keep in mind that it is next to impossible to "read" tone via written word only.  Often when people here have had disagreements because someone believed that a response was "rude", "mean", "condescending", or "snarky", it was simply a misinterpretation of the "tone".  People some just just have word choices, etc. that might lead two or three people to interpret the tone one way and 7 or 8 people don't interpret it at all that way.

Yes, sometimes responses ARE snarky, etc., but everyone is human and sometimes for those of us who have been here for YEARS (when the vast majority of people don't bother to stay once they get past the 9 month mark, if even that, and never bother to try to "pay it forward" and help others) get exasperated... And can spot someone who is headed for trouble and need to hear an honest response not hand holding.
