It shouldn’t as long as you’re logged in. I did a test after seeing your comment and the terms I’d searched and clicked on for my own items aren’t showing in my stats.
I’ve just done two more specific tests. Will check but not of course today. Will need to wait until tomorrow.
How did you check yours so quickly ?
@JOYSofGLASS You posted about it yesterday morning and I did the test searches when I saw your post yesterday, then checked my stats today.
I did do the same but have just repeated to be 
@JOYSofGLASS Let us know if they show, mine seemed to behave but if other people are seeing their own views/searches from when they were logged in, might need to double check whether the work fixing the stats messed anything else up.
(and if anyone else wants to do a really identifiable search on themselves to help check…)
I did a number of deliberate searches for one of my purses (one that I didn’t think anyone would be looking for at the moment) yesterday whilst logged in and it doesn’t show up in my stats today so looks like it’s working fine for me

I did a test search yesterday - I got as far as ‘fordi’ in the search box before one of my items showed up so I clicked on it. No sign of ‘fordi’ in my search terms today. I’ll try a different search on a different device today.

Apologies. You are quite correct. My search terms of yesterday are not showing. I will blame it on my current state of health. Queasy to an extreme. :: 
I have the teeny weeniest hole in my toe which won’t heal so after two weeks i took to the doctors and the antibiotics they gave me are Knock out. Just taken first of today’s 4 and not sure I dare move.
Obviously affects my eyesight and brain… as comes with a thick head too.
All working fine x

Phew, well at least it seems to be working as expected then. I hope the toe heals up quickly now @JOYSofGLASS and you’re feeling better soon x
Thanks Kim. I think my toe will be fine but the obvious bad cumulative effect of these tablets has knocked me for 6 an now waiting for dr to phone me back with an alternative solution. Great for weight loss though

Update. Those big bad pills were very bad indeed. Will be filling in a yellow form for them. Realised why I was feeling so ill when i took my blood pressure and found my heart beat was 124… that is seriously high so had emergency doctor visit on Friday.
Not had a tablet now since Thursday and today I woke up no longer feeling really rather ill and glory be my rather obviously antibiotic-induced heart arrythmia has gone. Phew.
Appetite back too. Just ate some chocoate

Pleased you are feeling better Joy

Thanks Debby. I’m relieved to work out why I was feeling so bad. I have worked out it was the interaction of the antibiotic and my BP diuretic which caused it as both cause low calcium and that causes abnormal heart rate.
Can’t help my analytical brain !
Seems to me it should be recorded somewhere that they should not be taken together !!
As my husband now has Pulmonary Fibrosis (fortunately caught just in time before it caused major damage and not now progressing) as a direct result of taking a daily antibiotic as a UTI preventative i will now be googling and googling again before taking any antibiotic other that one i have taken ok before.

Oh heck you would think that would be on the leaflet of medicines to check with GP before taking together, I’m pleased you figured it out in good time and I can imagine you must have had a huge sigh of relief.
I remember reading your hubby has pulmonary fibrosis and i was a little concerned at the time as my mum in law had it but it had advanced before we knew what it was and nothing could be done, sadly she lasted about 2 years from diagnosis so I am really pleased you have mentioned it and that it has been caught early, that’s really good news.
I had a panic with the same thing this time last year, i had atelectasis (partial lung collapse) with walking pneumonia and they found scarring on my lungs, as they were the same symptoms as mum in law I was slightly worried for a few days but thankfully it wasn’t PF.
I’m so sorry about your mum in law. Awful awful disease and we are so very lucky that Bob had decided after a couple of years that the daily UTI antibiotic was not doing him any good, made him a bit nauseous so stopped taking it.
He took it long enough to cause damage but not severe. It has not progressed in the 6 months according to a recent scan and is unlikely to as he no longer takes the drug which caused it. He is just a bit breathless after exertion but only briefly.
I found the link via an extensive Google search. We were lucky that the consultant we saw was young and in research so he knew all about it. I suspect many older consultants would not know. Nice still prescribe it without warning not to give to older patients as kidneys do not work as well so it builds up toxins which the lungs love to grab. Our doctor had no idea, none at all.
Wonder how many people there are with ideopathic PF which is actually caused by the drug Bob took…and who still take the drug and continually make the PF worse…

Gosh it is frightening to think what could have happened or as you say may have to many others. Mum in laws was idiopathic and she was on a lot of medication for various ailments, makes you wonder whether it could have been similar and caused by the meds, we will never know. It is lovely to hear the disease hasn’t progressed further now that Bob has stopped taking the meds and your extensive research may now hopefully help others.
I often wonder about the meds I am on, been on them 12 years, some are opiods and my body is now addicted to them, I might do some research myself.
I will be really careful in future before popping anything new in my mouth. As you get older your kidneys in particular don’t function as well and don’t rid you of the things you take as quickly. Sadly as you get older you have more needs for the pills you take… Catch 22.
My doctor knows I google but it has paid off over time.
I have Dupuytrens contracture as had my mother (eventually curls your fingers into the palm of your hands). In 2016 I was getting a lot of pain and decided to do something about it, Googled and then joined a specific couple of Facebook groups. From there I discovered there was radiotherapy treatment available. I went private for consultation but he put me through the NHS at Stoke. I had 2 lots of five daily zaps on my right hand. I am touch typing this as it (fingers crossed and I can ) fixed it. That was 8 years ago.
My doctor had no idea the treatment was available because the normal hand people send you to the surgeon and surgeons will only do surgery. Oncologists do RT so that is who I saw, Sometimes I love Google.
My sister who is 2 years older than me can now barely cut up meat because her hand contracture is so bad but she didnt listen to me !

Well all the research has certainly paid off for you Joy, ut’s amazing that you found a treatment, they listened to you and it worked, such a shame your sister didn’t but I suppose we put our trust in the doctors and think that they know best.
Bone scans done over a number of years have shown my bone density is so high it can’t be charted, in normal people it lowers with age mine is climbing, metabolic bone disease clinic have done tests for rare conditions but they don’t currently know which one it is, my bones grow and remodel too fast and they think it was a genetic mutation in me. My children have had the bone scans and my daughter has inherited it, she was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis at 30 but think it may be connected, my grandson has a 1 in 2 chance of having the same. Apparantly research has found the density causes spine problems, I am less abled with lumbar and cervical spine problems. My bone consultant can see the link between the bone density and spine problems but neuro just look at spine issues, it’s a widespread condition so the joints throughout my body are arthritic. 2 failed spine operations and I have just cancelled a 3rd which would have been this month. It’s frustrating that neuro don’t look at the big picture when the bone clinic and Gp have both told me they think everything stems back to the bone disease. I wish consultants could get their heads together then maybe we would have some answers. Sometimes perhaps (as in your case) it pays to look and read up on conditions, I have read plenty on my spine issues but only when they give me updates from MRi’s with specific problems, maybe I should look further into it.
Bob had a double heart bypass 5 years come Wednesday so when he reported breathlessness the doctor immediately consulted his heart man. Took a couple of months longer as a result before they realised it might be a lung not heart issue and sure enough it was. Absolutely do wish that two separate disciplines would talk to each other a bit more.

Yes it could have been a lot worse for Bob, thank goodness it was sorted before it was too late x
