Tech Question About This Site.......



Recommended Posts

On my computer, when I start reading a topic, after several people have added posts, they are all jammed together at the bottom of the page. If there is a post with say 25 replies, I can only read the first 5 or so and just get interested, then they are all jumbled together and I cant read any of them. Anybody got any ideas what Im doing wrong, oir how to fix ?

Thanks

I am having the same issue. I thought it was something in my system. If you know of a "fix" please share as I would also like to continue reading past 4 or 5 posts. Thanks. Foxy

After reading 4 or 5 responses I have to go to the next page.

What browser are you using? I am using Firefox on my PC, and Safari on my I-Pad have no issues at all.

Sorry to hijack your thread, but is any one else able to get into specific forums right now? I have tried switching internet browsers and trying to enter from different spots, but am unable to access anything but the "view new content" section. Any help appreciated.

Stephy- I am having the same problem. Mostly all of the posts, blogs, and even topics pages I try to click on gives me a error message...this is what it says:

Server error

The website encountered an error while retrieving http://www.lapbandta...day-is-our-day/. It may be down for maintenance or configured incorrectly.

Here are some suggestions:

  • Reload this webpage later
  • If I click on reload, nothing happens...but it will let me go back to the page I was on...what is going on here?...I am assuming its just what it says...maintenance?

That sucks :( When I tried in internet explorer, I got the same error message as above. When I try in Firefox, the page turns blank (unless of course I am going to new content).

Hopefully this gets fixed asap.

Same thing happens to me-this happened several weeks ago and it's one reason I don't go on much. I think if you right click an area up top (the gray area) then click compatabilty view button to uncheck it (if it is checked) it helps.

This happens when you are using an older version of Internet Explorer. Its a bit of a pain as I cannot upgrade my IE at work due to compatibility with critical business software. Chrome is fine

I have IE on my system, that I only use for business.

I just opened and read this website with no problems.

Picked a lengthy post.

I was able to scroll down and read about 20 responses until it asked me to go to next page.

It was a lengthy post, so there were at least 6 pages.

So, I do not think it is due to the browser you are using. Perhaps "page Setup"

Oh, I am using the latest version of IE.

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
