Pulmonary Embolism Support Group

By far the most common form of pulmonary embolism is a thromboembolism, which occurs when a blood clot, generally a venous thrombus, becomes dislodged from its site of formation and embolizes to the arterial blood supply of one of the lungs. Symptoms may include difficulty breathing, pain during breathing, and more rarely circulatory instability and death.

Help? Off health topic but on DS topic

Has anyone else had this happen?
Just a couple of weeks ago I stopped getting emails delivered to my Inbox from threads that I'd marked 'watch' and which are STILL marked 'watch'.

I waited. I waited.
I finally wrote to DS.
I've been in a serious of very frustrating email conversations with their pet robot. GACK

I'm losing patience------ but am helpless against a robot.

I haven't gotten e-mail notices from DS in a couple of years. I think some people have raised the issue in the DS Community group.

rmb----- thank you. That's strange (and I assume you've marked threads 'watch'? At least in the past.)

I'll go to the Community group and maybe get some help there.
What's strange is---- it just happened. For about 2 years I've gotten email notices for all watched threads. All of a sudden---wham!

I hate bots.

Yeah, for me, it's the stuff I've marked watched and just other things where I used to get e-mails (I think when anyone responded to a discussion I started, I used to get an e-mail per my settings). So I used to get messages all the time, but I think they did an update of some sort a while back, and after that, no matter how many times I re-updated my e-mail info and user info, it just stopped working for me.

Yeah---- I hate 'updates' too! New and improved usually isn't. Sigh.

I finally had time to go to that Community forum rmb mentioned.

Here's just one of the posts (made yesterday) concerning that cute 'migration' that DS planned.

As the recent 'migration' progressed, an impending catastrophe was foreseen and DS backed out of the migration. It will be attempted again, soon, when that problem is worked out."

DS robots 'informed' me this a.m. that 'my situation' had been resolved internally. I thought "how nice".

Too soon. LOL Nothing has changed for me (about getting email notices) but I did get two strange emails from DS that I'd never seen the likes of before.

New software. Bah! Need new robots. (grin)

Here is the url for the Community support group, if anyone want to find out what's happening with the email deliveries, search feature and other mess-ups caused by the DS software and it's handlers.

(I don't know if everyone has been plagued by the mis-steps but I know many have, including me.)

It's a friendly forum with a sense of humor displayed by most members.
However, one of the funniest, friendliest posters received a month long temp. ban for reasons unknown by others (and probably even her).
(Oh, that wasn't me, BTW LOL)

Some Grinch and/or Grinchlets probably reported her in a fit of pique and DS just upped and banned her. Sad but true.

There are many Grinches on the forums so beware, my children, beware.

    We all have 24 hours in a day.  How we spend these hours is important.  Watching a little bit of a video about how sitting affects us made me aware of how much sitting and laying down I do.  Gonna have to work on that.Your turn.  Tell me another truth.
