ok....I've made up my mind! I don't like the new format! I'm having to search individually for each post ( often can't remember which topic to refer to)....as far as I'm concerned, (in my humble opinion), this is just ONE more thing to stress over! Do I need to p/m everybody individually now??....or start new discussions? This doesn't seem an officiant way to go about things....not a happy camper!!
The blue "Reply" box is the way to reply to the original post. Yes - what a pain, you can't see what you are replying to (or at least, I haven't worked out how yet). At the bottom right of each reply comment you will see, in rather faint type, Reply. Click on that and you can reply to that particular post.
But to be honest Lynda - we've been here a couple of times recently, everyone hated the last one, but the hosts don't really care. Take it or leave it. I think this is even more horrendous than the last offer. But what choice do I have if I want to keep helping others?
When did this happen? Was on two days ago and it wasn't like this😳 And with everything offered there still isn't an edit option! I guess we'll get used to it it like last time but does seem less user friendly🙄
Haven't tried it yet so no comment except to say I just wish we could have all round slower tech. Language evolves slowly and we get time to adjust. I shout at the TV when words are mis-used or mispronounced and that makes me feel better and as though I am still in charge but with updates and new formats it's take it or leave it and I feel incompetent.
Let's all help each other and we may get to love it.
They have also recently changed the patient.co.uk which my surgery use for patient info and that is horrible too. There is also all sorts of changes on the keyboard too, that is not the same as before and is really annoying. Why dud they have to change it? I thought we were going to be able to amend after we had posted.
There was nothing wrong with the last one! I hate change. It's more like an email setting now we can send attachments. Ah well nothing we can do about it so just roll with it...hope you are all doing ok....heaps of good thoughts.....
Well I got to put in my two cents worth ... I dictate into my phone / tablet and I do not like the fact that it does not capitalize the first letter of every sentence. I did not have this problem with the old version nor do I have that problem on any other website. I mean this spell check is great to have I haven't tried it but it's there if I need it. But to have to go through and capitalize the first letter of every sentence is more than a little irritating
NO I do not like it. But it's partly smoke and mirrors to trick us all because now if you want to do things like check your history you have to have a subscription.
If you want to keep in touch, I'm more often found on HealthUnlocked as HeronNS.
Cheers!
And no littel Patient emoticons any more. :(
They did that last time - made the "report" box more obvious than the reply. I also logged out by mistake when I wanted to check my account. Then I found that you can't check your history any more, unless you get a subscription. And we've lost the cute emoticons, the little rolling the eyes one, and the blushing face and the little devils. :(
Ok, I give up after 11 years. I am now 80 and know way I am even going to attempt to try this out.
If you want me, Healthunlocked PMR&GCA jinasc.
Oh dear Lynda - does this mean you never saw my query to you about VitD deficiency vs PMR ! I don't think you have replied to it.....and I can't find my post to you as it may have been tagged on the end of someone elses........what a disappointment as I feel sure you would have had an answer......harrumpf......x
LOL....I sure hope I'm replying to the correct post! is this u Eileen?? omg...my eyes are still not right after being dilated (can't see very well), and now I feel I'm typing this 'blindly' cuz I'm unsure of which post I'm replying to!!! YIKES...is it 'their' job to keep us perpetually confused/stressed??😂
LOL....THIS IS NUTZ!! everyone's going Looney toons trying to figure this out! had a horrible day, but I must say, I'm LAUGHING right now (to keep from crying). I apologize ahead of time if I screw things up in replying to wrong post or giving incorrect information. just trying to figure this out!👌✌
I'm TRYING!! jury's still out 4 me!😠
absolutely, I completely agree w/the capitol letter situation! I've got enough on my plate right now, so please everyone....forgive my laziness in not getting 'with it' for correct letters/spelling, etc! and btw....this KILLS me as I'm a former teacher!😱😱
YIKES....that's capital, not capitol!! omgggg!
what's a subscription? and does it cost?.... I tried to get on healthunlocked when I was concerned I didn't have access to THIS forum and was unable to do so...I'm not as computer literate as I would like to think!😲
NO!!! don't give up! I tried to get on healthunlocked awhile ago and for whatever reason was unable to do so...kept saying I didn't have permission to do so????😱😠😲
No!!! missmagwumps, I'm so sorry....i didn't see your post. I've got a feeling I've not seen several posts.😠 I've had quite a day and am probably going to create a new discussion so i can respond to all you kind folks at the same time. sorry, I just don't know how else to do this right now😕
Mary, please try and find my new post on my surgery situation. if you can't find it, let me know and I'll p/m you! JEEZ....what a Pain!!
