Having an issue with my site, the Admin page is blank for the most part,

The site seems to work OK, I just can't do anything from the admin page.
Help greatly appreciated.

Hosting companies normally do not provide scripting support. For that you need Specialized Joomla Support or here the forums etc.

Generally speaking: Any white page of death is per definition a PHP-error

Go with ftp to configuration.php and open with a text editor and set error-reporting = 'maximum', login and post any message you see

After changing the error reporting and letting it sit for a few days this is what I get in the error_log file:

I did not ask for that. I asked for the error message as shown when you set error-reporting = maximum

I did not get any error message, sorry.
This seems to be the issue.
All works well except for the admin page.

Since we're obviously not going to be able to log into your admin, perhaps you can post the FPA as you've been requested to do (by @mandville above): viewtopic.php?f=714&t=793531
