Messages in iCloud disappeared from iPhone
I thought I was saving my messages to iCloud. I choose to save my messages forever on my iPhone but some have disappeared. There are no messages in my iCloud. Help!

You access everything that's stored simply by opening messages on your phone. There isn't anything else besides that in the cloud. iCloud doesn't back up your messages, it just keeps them in sync. If you don't sync between devices it's probably not necessary to use messages in the cloud.
I guess I don't understand. My iCloud account says that 187 mb of storage is used for messages. I have no other Apple devices to synchronize. There's no way to access what's stored? Bummer.
Messages in the cloud simply synchronizes your messages across your devices. It is not a backup for your messages. If messages have been deleted from your phone, they are gone. you could restore from a backup made to your computer but that is at the expense of anything new since the last backup.
