So I spent hours creating a complicated PDF then when I go back in random fields are there but their not! When I am in "Prepare Form" mode and I go back in because I noticeed the fillable field wasn't showing. all I see is a box that I can still click into but then when I click properties it shows -16368 as the font size?? It doesn't allow the fillable words to fill in when filling in the form either so its not that it isn't showing as a fillable field something is definately wrong with Adobe. Seems like there is always a issue with these forms!

They are corrupt. Try to delete them and create new ones.
If you don't manage to delete them (it's possible), move them to an empty part of the page and redact it.

I recommend you save backups of this file, in case something else goes wrong with it...
