Just in case you noticed.....

On June 26th I contacted MedHelp to find out what happened to our "Most Viewed Health Pages" here on the substance abuse forum.  They are "gone" and so is our link to ALL the other Health Pages right now.

On June 28th, this is the answer I got:  "Our Health Pages are temporarily down, and should be up and running again soon.

So, while I was pleased to get a response.....it really didn't provide the answer(s) I was seeking.

Passing it along~

That's a shame.  Since I hardly ever sleep I spend hours and hours just reading on this site and learning what works and what doesn't

Thank you, Vicki, for validating my concern.  I can't tell you how much I referred to those health pages my first year on this forum....and how many times I posted a specific link to help a new person on our forum.  They were FULL of valuable experience, strength and hope...not to mention knowledge by those who have walked the walk.

It's the VAGUENESS that bothers me......no explanation...not even a general one....and no commitment on MH's part as to their return.

What?  Who's updating them? Like re writing them? Those articles were almost exclusively written by forum members who KNOW what's what. Like Thomas who wrote the recipe...he was a long time member...

I didn't notice they were gone because I haven't referred to them in awhile but they need to come back. Something's fishy...

Since they did an update last night (7/8/14) and the Health Pages are not back, I went and found the mod's answer to Debbie's question here:

http://www.medhelp.org/posts/Improve-MedHelp-Suggestions/Health-pages/show/2225929

Seems they "may" be updating the actual pages themselves.....and didn't mean that the pages would be back with the next MH update.  I sure miss them...the pages, that is.  I have wanted to refer to them MANY times and send a newbie to read an article or two.  Hummmmmm....guess there's no specific answer as to their return?

Thanks Connie, im glad you mentioned this.
On another topic, for the last week, when i read a thread i cant turn the page on mobile version to read comments.  The page is blank. I have to go to full site which is really annoying because im too lazy.
Hope ive explained myself properly lol.
Thankyou sweet lady xx

I sure hope it does come back!! Maybe they will bring in a more up date version of all of this. There is so much more to add to some of these recipes too..Heck I think we should make a new recipe..lol
I did my own as CIK did too..I think we need to add some new things to it..The Amino-Acid thing could be updated too. They are coming up with more and more new info every year..
Thanks CIK..I love Ya!!!

Yikes - thanks for the head's up!  It's a shame you can't get any additional info...like an estimated date.  I wonder how long it has been down?  
Thanks again for the info!

And the people go...."WHO CARES????"""  Hahaha!

Oh well, when "I" was a newbie....I read the Health Pages every day...I learned SO MUCH there.  What foods to eat to increase dopamine levels, what to expect after acute detox, amino acid protocol that works wonders, on and on.  

And we often refer new people to the Thomas Recipe which we had in those pages....only ours was a re-posted version w/o benzos.

Can't do that now.....just sayin~
