This is frustrating. It tells you to click on join and nothing says join in the upper right hand side. Why is this made so complicated. Cancer patients have enough stress in their life can’t this be made more simple and insure ions clearer

Hi @olg1 I’m sorry this is so frustrating for you. I agree, life holds enough stress, especially when you have cancer or any other illness. We’ve tried to make Mayo Connect as easy as possible for everyone. Most of the members in this community forum have had cancer, seriously illnesses, surgery, autoimmune diseases, etc. So we are all very empathetic and want to help as much as we can.

You have already joined! You have an @name and are logged into our Connect site. The very fact that you’re in here talking to us, is all you need to be a member and interact with a conversation. ☺️

I think this is the group you were looking for. Is there a particular comment a member made that drew your interest? If so, look at that post again and where you see the REPLY button, just click on that and it will allow you to speak directly to the person in the conversation.

You may also notice that the under the title posting in the large box at top, there is a drop down menu that says Oldest to newest. Click on there to Newest and you’ll see the most current conversations. Does this help you? Keep on trying! You can see we’re here for you as @gingerw and @auntieoakley have mentioned.

@olg1 Anyone can read posts on Mayo Clinic Connect. They are "free" and do not require any membership nor joining. When/if one wants to participate by posting a reply or question, that is when you join to become a member.

Yes, I agree with you about the stress a cancer patient goes through. Mayo Clinic Connect is here to help support and make our journeys easier.

@olg1, if you are posting on the site as you have been, then you've already joined. Are you getting a pop-up that covers the screen telling you to Join?
