Romulan Can't Heal Injuries

I have three different Romulan characters, all of which are unable to use their regenerators to heal their injuries. Affected characters:

Shivali@LinkArcher, Fed-aligned Alien female

Shiala@LinkArcher, Fed-aligned Reman female

Darth Maul@LinkArcher, KDF-aligned Reman male

Whenever I open the medical bay on any of these characters the medical bay is either blank or has my current target selected to attempt to heal. When the target selection is clear there is a drop-down list to select who to heal. However, on all three of my Romulan characters the captain is not on that list, only my bridge officers. When I use F1 to target myself the captain does appear to be targeted and all of the injuries do appear, though I still can't heal them. When I select Heal, Heal All or just double click each injury the "Are you sure you want to heal?" dialog box does appear, though after I click OK nothing happens. The injuries are not healed and my regenerators are not used.

I have plenty of all three types of regenerators on each character and they do show up in the medical bay. Usually I keep them in the normal bank (NOT account bank) but I have the same problem when the regenerators are in my regular inventory as well. In case this is relevant I purchased the Romulan starter pack, giving two extra bridge officer slots per character, with no additional boff slots aside from them.

This glitch partially affects the medical bay on starbases as well. When I talk to the doctor the medical bay appears and defaults to my captain immediately, allowing me to treat the injuries. However, if I use the drop-down list my captain is missing again and only my bridge officers are available. If I select a bridge officer I have to back out and talk to the doctor again to heal my captain.

    I too have experienced the same bug; I've also reported it multiple times each with a similar response from PWE/Cryptic..."We have received your report...blah blah blah" and NOTHING has been done about it, since actually doing their job doesn't bring in revenue. It's much like making an medical insurance claim. Medical insurance companies label claims as "medical losses" if they have to pay on them. Using the same analogy, if the developers/coders for this game actually fixed this very irritating problem (especially for me since I'm a life-time account holder), it would be a business loss to them. Fixing this bug would produce no income for them in my case since I don't pay a subscription fee anymore. So therefore, my bug reports for this bug go ignored every time. They've already gotten as much money as they ever will from me so why should they pay attention to my complaints about bugs that have never been addressed?

    The healing UI is pretty badly bugged and has been for a while, it affects both ground & space but ground seems the worst.

    As described, opening the heal menu while a target is selected makes the target, friend or foe, appear in the heal menu. Naturally we can't heal either of those so this should never be anything other than the active ship or shuttle in space.

    Ground is the same, but for me my character doesn't even appear in the list, only BOffs. Hilarity.

    If you press 'U' and click on the 'injured' button at the bottom, sometimes the player character will be selected by default. As long as you don't click anything other than heal or heal all it should work ok.
