Anyone know if it's possible to complain about ads on this site? While I understand the importance of revenue-providing advertisements, maybe they'd take into consideration the needs/problems of their audience? The near-constant blinking of that stoopid Go Back To School red button on the left side makes it really hard for me to use this site since I have a seizure disorder. I don't even have to look at it (see it via peripheral vision) in order for it to bother me Sad

Hmmm I don't see the go back to school thing, it's a plain green ancestry.com ad. No blinking. I could request of Roy to keep this in mind though.

I'm glad to share my experience, but I am not a doctor and you should always consult your own physician.

I'm hypopituitary (SAI and hypothyroid) caused by a pituitary cyst. Taking 7.5 mg prednisone and 75 mcg synthroid daily.

Firefox with the Adblock 2.02 extension works well..
Please remember that accurate answers often need detailed source information. Please considering putting your DX status, drug dosage and other information into your "About Me" or Signature Line. That also includes what country you are in because measurement systems and diagnostic methods vary around the world.
