Haven't heard from Skeptix lately. He usually has some good and thoughtful things to say. Anyone know anything? Hope hes on vacation having fun somewhere.

Good question. I'd like to know as well. A very valuable member on this board.

I miss Skeptix too. He posted some thought provoking questions and always provided intelligent well researched answers to other member’s questions.

This is so weird that people on this forum just disappear. It happened to Mr. Kidney several months ago and now Skeptix. Its hard to believe that no one knows what happened to him.

They don't just disappear. Priorities change. I've left some of my support groups merely because personal needs changed. I don't announce or say goodbye, I just leave. Blessings

I've been wondering that too. It would be nice to know. He had a droll sense of humor and that nice European perspective we don't see often. I surely hope Skeptix is still here.

Agree with others about Skeptix. I'm also missing the insights and info from Blackknight1989...nothing "out there", just good solid advice and info. I sent a private message but never received a reply, and we had communicated several times before in posts. Just hope he's OK and off living his best life.

I still feel as if it's odd especially since Skeptix and Blacknight were very actively involved in the forum. I could understand it if they were only passively involved, but they weren't. Sad and more distressing not to know.

Hopefully he’s doing well. Probably just busy with life. Hopefully we will see him back here at some point.

I just hope he's doing alright and he's not around because he's made great progress with his kidneys and now he's so happy that he doesn't even remember this forum! 🤞😁

I still feel it's very odd that he just dropped out of this forum while actively involved in commenting on some issues.

I'd bet dollars to donuts he got banned. Happens all the time on moderated forums, and sometimes you don't even get a warning. Watch.....I'll be banned just for saying that. If so, it's been a slice. :)

I wish we had a way of maintaining contact. I was in the middle of a serious conversation with him about a friend and suddenly he disappears. Weird??????

Ha! I haven't been banned yet. :DSame thing happened with Mr. Kidney....just disappeared. For a time, I thought Mr. Kidney and Skeptix was the same person, but grew doubtful of that. As you say....weird.

Don’t know about Skeptix but hope he is okay…but I’m back baby! Nascar I answered you. I apologize for that…I wish I could link my email for y’all to see…I wouldn’t mind doing that. Much like KidneyCoach said, I had some things in life that took priority for a couple of months that didn’t allow me the time to actively post or even read the forum. I apologize for that but life happens!

Is it against the forum's rules to share email addresses?

No not at all but they want you to do it individually in a chat so as not to make them liable for a million billion gazillion people contacting you who all want to ask why their eGFR had changed 10 points in 3 months. Then you running around with your hair on fire and sustaining a massive injury that would allow you to sue the forum admins on Healthunlocked guaranteeing you become a multimillionaire as between KidneyCoach and Mr. Kidney they have 1 billion…lol! I am just joshing….lol! In all seriousness share individually and you’ll be good.
