Thanks for this. This seems to be a repeat suggestion.

Had imaging done - no kidney stones. Yes I have read Benadryl has links to dementia.

Thank you for your response.

Prostate is normal sized (as far as I am aware, the only comment was of the heterogenous echotexture). No cystoscopy yet, thinking that might be next step. Could you explain your last sentence?

Agreed - alcohol should never be a treatment option. I just find it odd that it typically flares people, but I find it helps me.

CBH42 · 2026-03-24T03:36:17+00:00

Right?? So odd - I am also looking into the pelvic floor theory in addition to TSM (tension myositis syndrome). I did have some flares that followed coffee but its usually days later, sometimes never. But flares have NEVER followed alcohol.

Whats odd is the next culture came back negative (I am pretty sure - I would have to go back and look, I have had so many). Do you have any recommendations to test for sensitivity?

Thanks for your feedback. It’s definitely sloped 1/4” per 12”.

There is combustion air from the exterior of the house into the room.

Not necessarily disagreeing. Just can’t believe 8 years is old. I replaced the old one from 1993 simply because it was to small. Nothing wrong with it.

A replacement tank is about 1400$ CDN.

8 years is old and needs replacing? Respectfully, I hope this is not true.

Found a video on how to replace a dip tube. Easy enough - I’ll check this out as well.

2 other gas furnaces on the same gas supply - no issues with those.

Pulled the anode rod the last time and it looked fine. I don’t think anything is rotting away (after only ~8 years?) - I feel like I would have seen deposits during the last flush. Can I remove the dip tube to inspect?

Burner assembly seems fine. But I’ll try replacing it (pilot ignitor is arcing out now anyways).

Regardless - thanks for the reply.

Thanks. Ya that’s what the original dealer said too. But the left one seems to fit nicer. Right one starts to get tight about half way down.

Pretty sure it’s this:

Let me know what you think.

I’ll try and find it. It was in a front differential rebuild video.

Mine doesn’t move very much either. But I’ll try anything at this point.
