It does sound like a cache issue. Hitting refresh on your browser doesn't always work (as you've seen); try manually clearing the cache on your computer and opening a new browser session. (Also, shift+refresh forces the computer -- if it's a PC, anyway -- to go to the web, not to the cache. Most of the time. When things are working.) There's also a server cache at play, and that might be contributing to the problem as well; if you've tried clearing the cache on your computer and you're still having that issue, it could be the LJ servers at issue (poor overworked things that they are). There's not much you can do about that, of course, but perhaps others will have additional suggestions.
