Guest guest Posted January 19, 1999 Report Share Posted January 19, 1999 Hi, Another avenue is the Fax...I agree the phone call is the 'fastest and surest' method. I have written snail mail, sent faxes, and made phone calls...Typically the emails receive an automated response vice any personal type...most folks will tell you that email is not the best method.

Guest guest Posted January 19, 1999 Report Share Posted January 19, 1999 Most of us have had the experience of receiving nothing but canned responses to emails sent to congresspersons/senators/the White House...you name it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is very easy to do.. If someone threatens you with bodily harm it is an issue for your local police. They can use the email and trace it back to the exact computer it was written and sent on.... If I read the post correctly of the private e-mail made by Sara sent by Jane , I seriously cannot believe such an issue was made over it at all....and I have to thank Jane for how she has handled herself on this list about it. She wrote what she thought off-list. What she(Cheryl) wrote was something I saw as something that surprised me as being a little " strange " .... and I wish I could lie about this, but I know now I could have penned the very same letter that wrote...Cheryls' post was bizarre....but I wasn't the person it was directed too...so I just sighed and clicked next.... and BTW, a list moderator is not supposed to monitor private e-mail issues unless this is stated when you join the list....and that wasn't stated when we signed up for one-list so noone here should be sharing private e-mails with anyone unless they ask the person who sent it first for their permission to share....

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2001 Report Share Posted January 17, 2001 Hi Ya'll, We are doing OK. Just busy. Hunt got his labs back today and his alt are 60, so they are up and little but his AST are fine. His bilirubin is also up (1.8) but I don't think either one is bad enough to get too excited about. I find it strange that his alp's are routinely slightly low. From what I read, with AIH seems it would be high. Low number seem point to malnutrition or protein deficiency (remember he si away at college, no telling what he eats), I will remind him to take his vitamins. We have been real busy. Got back from Jamaica on the 7th. We got TWO hours of sunshine the whole time we were there, isn't that the pits? Also Don, the diving where we were was no good. Dive master even anchored onto the reef. That really set my hubby and Hunt off. Well need to go,,Thanks for caring for all us Rosemary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 17, 2001 Report Share Posted January 17, 2001 Hello anyone with PBS or anyone who knows anything about it: My Dad has primary biliary cirrhosis. I am not sure I am at the right place. I thought I would be able to talk to someone who has or someone who knows anything about it. He is in the final stage and is not getting a transplant. Can anyone tell me where to go from here? Debby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 17, 2001 Report Share Posted January 17, 2001 E-mails Hello everyone; I have only had 3 e-mails today. Is this the story for all of you or do I have a service problem? It is very unusual. Hope all is well or at least comfortable for everyone. I am thinking I am coming down with a cold and if so it will be the first one I have had for a couple years. It has been much cooler here in Az.than normal and I hear of so many having sore throats and bad coughs so guess it would not be unusal to catch it, especially those of us taking immune-suppressants.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2001 Report Share Posted January 20, 2001 Hello Harper; I take 5 citracal throughout the day, 2 at a time. I was suspected of a liver disease in 1990 but not officially diagnosed until 3-97 at age 70. How long I have actually had it is difficult to say but the conditions that led up to suspicion by the Dr came about when I was under stress with my mother's severe condition and eventual death. Why then I do not know because I have had a lot of stress since I was 20. I have had 3 liver biopsies. Have reduced prednisone this the 3rd time and I'm now taking 3.5mg.I have been taking azathioprine also for over 2 yrs. I am doing better this time reducing the prednisone by 1/2 mg at a time. I have been diagnosed with glaucoma during this time so use drops a.m. and p.m. At my age I never know what to blame, the ailment or the age. My husband and I bowl,golf and dance. People are surprised when they learn my age saying they would never have guessed it thinking I was 10 yrs younger. I have very little gray hair. I am about 20 lbs heavier since taking the medications and I am always very tired,even after 8hrs of sleep.Auto Immune diseases are common in the family. My mother had rhuem. arthritis suddenly in her 50's and died of kidney failure at 84. My sister 6 yrs younger than I has multiple sclerosis and is in a wheel chair.Hers was found in her 50's. My dad was found to have Aplastic anemia at 90yr of age and died the wk after his 91st birthday. I have taken meds for hypothyroid since in my 20's. As to taking classes I would not even try because my concentration is not good and my vision would not tolerate that much reading. The classes I took this summer at Chandler-Gilbert were computer classes and I really did not accomplish that much. We are now in a computer club at our Church and enjoy that more. I hope my message is not to confusing, as I re-read it seems a little jumbled.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2001 Report Share Posted January 20, 2001 Leona, I thought your message was very understandable. I think it is great at your age to be learning the use of the computer. I just hope when I reach your age I am half as good as you. Hope you are feeling less tired and ready to go dancing. I wish I didn't have 2 left feet. Keep it up girl! Carolyn...Keep smiling.

Guest guest Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 and all, Seems like it might be best to do as you suggest. Just don't open any attachments. Perhaps we can warn new people when they come on board. We can try it and see what happens. If that doesn't cure the problem, then perhaps a computer whiz (which I am not) might have a nifty way to eliminate them. Good luck, Kurt E-mails Indications are that some folks are still getting these polluted messages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 7, 2004 Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 Hello to all- I use Microsoft outlook and was getting contaminated emails (or at least my virus program said so) almost every day for a while. Haven’t had any for about 1 1/2 – 2 weeks. I hope we can continue on and just not open any attachments, as suggested. Bonnie E-mails Indications are that some folks are still getting these polluted messages. Seems to me we have two choices: Wait it out, hope it eventually goes away, and DON'T OPEN ANY ATTACHMENTS. Start a new group. This would involve a) setting up a new organization, everyone needing to reregister, and c) notifying everyone who has us as a reference site that we have changed our name. A lot of trouble. If you guys can stand, I would recommend, as Bush says, " staying the course " . Any thought? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 9, 2004 Report Share Posted April 9, 2004 Good job. Thanks for all of your hard work in this area. Bonnie E-mails Folks - as of this evening, only members will be able to post - That, and the restriction on attachments, should get rid of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
