   Tablet Warning Me About Myhealthevet?

   This morning I have a message from my PCP. I went to log on to read it but I keep getting a warning that it is not secure, invalid security certificate... I have often had that and often not. Is it common to many of you? Is it a problem with a Samsung tablet? A flaw in the software for myhealthevet? Maybe even a real threat that someone is stealing my password?

   I posted 2 replies here in social to the vet who needed a VSO in Kentucky but I accessed the post via the Recent posts on the right hand side...and commented that way. Then I had to re listen to the radio show for something and found that when I went to Social where he posted this , my replies were not there.....but pop up if I go back to the initial post in the recent srtuff to the right of the main page. This never happened to me before so I am curious why it happened.....

   Not sure if anyone else is having this problem, but Hadit is just not showing up properly for me today. It was fine yesterday and I did not make any setting changes: On PC with Chrome will not display any forum content. I just get the gray bar at the top and bottom, but nothing in the middle. On PC with Internet Explorer and on my Android device with Chrome, everything is fine except forum content is centered.

    Looking for advice...I have a statement in support of a claim that I want to upload to ebennies but I need to sign the form prior to uploading it. Not sure how to do this or if it's better to just mail it to my RO via "snail mail". I used the VA's "fillable form" and all is good 'till I got to the signiture block. I have it saved as a PDF on my computer. I do have MS Office on the computer...just not sure what course to take next? Anyone have any good or bad experiences uploading documents? I'd welcome any suggestions. Thanks! LC
