If you’re not using a Child Theme, and if the theme doesn’t have a designated section of the dashboard for CSS modifications then install this Custom CSS Manager plugin http://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-css-manager-plugin
Then use its “CSS Code” section of the dashboard to hold your CSS modifications.
Alternatively use your Child Theme style.css file to hold your CSS modifications.

?ver=1.0.3 does not refer to a file name, it’s just something to stop the browser from caching the file
That plugin gets the site to load my changes, but it breaks the WordPress backend. Frustrating!
I am using a Child Theme. I should have mentioned that in the initial posts. I created it with the Child Theme Wizard, and am editing it via the editor under the appearance section of the WordPress dashboard.
The changes I’m making are showing up eventually, but it’s taking a long time for them to show. This makes it impossible for me to tinker around with the theme and to see what I need to fix.

If you’re sure you don’t have a caching plugin ask your hosting providers as to whether they cache your site
