    Alex,

    I don't know why you aren't seeing your post. Please write out what you are seeing.

    You have not violated any of the TOS.

      I see your post (post #11 in this thread) written at 11:50PM on 8-29-17 just after funnylegs talking about beer. Is the post you're looking for the one where you say you found out you have a UTI due to reading the labs and not from your RNP?
      I see no indication that it is in moderation or hidden from view.
      Question: Why can't I post links or pictures?
      Question: Why can't I have a signature, avatar, or profile picture?
      Question: What's wrong with my account?

      Answer: You are in the "registered users" user group. This group is very limited in what it can do. This will annoy spammers to no end Just keep posting once you have been registered for 30 days and have made 11 posts your account will be "unlocked".

      It's really easy to put someone on ignore and it's strongly recommended that you do so with people who's posts you don't like.

      Step 1 - log in
      Step 2 - click on the "settings" link
      Step 3 - click on the "edit ignore list" link on the left side of the screen
      Step 4 - type (or paste if you copied and pasted it) the username of the person you want to ignore
      Step 5 - click the "ok" button on the right of the screen

      Easy peasy and will lower your blood pressure. One important note though, this won't hide quoted posts. It's an oversight on the developers part and it's not an easy thing to "fix." So if someone quotes someone you have ignored, you'll see the quote.

      Alternatively when you click on a person's name and view their profile page, underneath their avatar, there is a option that says, "Ignore this person". Click that link and then click the yes button.

First, I get no ride home - they (VA) picked me up - no one there could figure out my transport - if not for a good friend who had to come 15 miles to get me -n I am quite sure at 4:30 that I would have been asked to leave - And then a $30. cab ride that I can ill afford. Then I get my labs - I have a urinary tract infection - No mention by my RNP. then I find out the "blue button " where you can access your medical records has been redacted, My RNP had a conversation with my pysc. about the morphine and Xanax and agreed it was ok. it is now GONE from the record. I may have a copy and their are other ways of getting the real record. She is on record as saying that she doubts I can ever come off it - this is probably true IF she wants me to follow her advice about drinking and such. There are always options. Finally, I know my phone does not always ring, but not even a voice mail from Transportation or the patient advocate. I served my country - this is , well you know, TOS and all that otherwise this post would be very Blue - I respect this forum and will be here as long as I have a connection. I signed on the dotted line to have my butt shoot off - what do I get - a political football thanks to the drug seekers and heroin addicts, whom I have a great compassion for. a lot of them have chronic pain and have nowhere to go god forbid they get fentanyl. I am tired, one thing after another is being taken from me, First Cynthia, now my pain meds, she is going to cut me back, suger, no big deal, I love fresh fruit , so I will see what the Psyc. says Friday about my Xanax - it has been a godsend in this time of troubles, I have already tapered down from 4 to 3Mg. tok quite a bit of effort, I almost had a seizure in florida when I did not get my meds - I was on the edge and starting to shake, I was able to pray and meditate until it passes and I could get to the clinic. Seizures are NOT fun, neither and they have no business after twenty years of doing this to me. I am considering going back to my Medicaid Primary for everything But P/M - reasons best left to me. I am disgusted with things and I will not sell my house unless I see one in Bisbee, AZ. a haven for Children of the 60's (Hippies) as I am a child of the sixty's so we shall see - but only if I get my price. Sorry this is long but I am fed up and like the guy in the movie shouted out his window - I am Mad as H--- and I am not going to take it anymore.
        Blessings to all

        Is this the post that you are missing on your screen? Or did you write another post after this one, and that is the missing one?

                    Alex,

                    I think something might be wrong with your computer. Perhaps try rebooting?

                    You have not violated any TOS.

                      Mod 7 - I think I know what happened - I neglected to look at the page count and by going up or down a page, there it was. Thank YOU

                        Hang in there.

                        I too am a vet facing the "new" policies at the VA. You might give your doctors the following articles:

                          Thank You - As I said in my previous posts - PM me as I don't discuss the VA anymore, unless you have dealt with them, Like both of us have, it is hard to understand. If I am wrong to feel this way, please let me know.

                              Thank you Agate - I had an ad in the paper that I could not afford, Got two responses that did not work out. I don't think$325. a month is too much for a room in a three bedroom ranch house is too much, esp. when utilities are included and only a $100. Sec. deposit. I have re- run the ad with the above and hope to get a response - I will have to get a tenant or my creditors will be very pissed as I have spent a long time getting a good credit rating and now I have to deal with my dear Cynthia's accounts,(2) on which I was a authorized user so therefore liable for the debt. I will figure out a way to pay them - I am very old school and was brought up to pay my bills. they will get paid. Thank you for your
                              concern. I have cut out all sugar in my diet( except for beer) and am wrking on that. I don't want diabetes,My mom had it, I know it is hereditary and it scares me to death after seeing what my mm went through, not to mention my boss,who had to have a foot AMPUTATED, but he too was old school and soldiered on (I will not speak of the horrrors the VA inflicted) thank you for your concern.
