My lovely friend Sheila explained beautifully how you can be advised when a new member joins. I am worried as the pages fill up with new comments this will be lost from sight so here it is for all of us to use, many thanks sweetheart! - Here's how you can tell if a new member joins. - Go to the upper right corner of this page where you see your name and a short menu underneath. - Click on "settings". - When you get to that page, go on the left to "emails". - When the new page opens, look for the header that says "Content and Members". - Top line says "email me whenever" and at the very bottom of that section, it has the choice "Anyone joins Trigeminal Neuralgia (TN) - Online Support Group". - Click in the box beside that, so that a check mark shows up in that box. - Go to the bottom of the page and click "Save", and then you'll get an email for each new member. ---

Thank you Jackie, I have followed your instructions and it’s done. Thank you for welcoming me to this support group when I joined. I was blown away with your quick response… And kindness. But that’s what this group is all about. I am sorry it’s taken so long to reply to your kind post but it’s taken me this long to get my head around the whole TN problem… XxxX ---

You can also see when a member joins by looking at the front page. It prompts with the current conversation threads too. :) ---
