Hello Teeb1971,


If you do not see the My Photo Stream album, it most likely means you're not using it anymore or haven't been using it. My Apple devices also do not show this album.


According to Apple,

"If you already have iCloud Photos enabled on all of your devices, you don't need to do anything else — your photos already sync to iCloud. To check, on your iPhone or iPad, go to Settings > your name > iCloud. On your Mac, choose Apple menu  > System Settings, click your name, then click iCloud. Make sure that it says "On" next to Photos on each of your devices."


Verify this setting is toggled on for all of your Apple devices and you will not loose any photos.


Here's how you find My Photo Stream:

iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

  • iOS 8 or later: Tap Photos > Albums > My Photo Stream.


Mac

Go to Photos > Albums > My Photo Stream.
