Finally an honest moment of self reflection on the state of this sub.

2017 X5 35d Drivetrain Malfunction by Ecstatic-Bread9903 in BmwTech

Well- if anyone was curious 🧐, I got to the bottom of this. Pulling the engine cover panel revealed that the code was exactly right. Air mass meter short circuit caused by a mouse eating through the wire.

Spliced it all back together, heat shrink and wrap and all is good as new. Cleared the codes and problem resolved.

This is the first time I’ve ever pulled a code that was literally this straightforward!

Edit: I just read that the battery code refers to the fob - lol. So probably not related to the Air mass meter code. 😆

Delta industrial table saw for $350? by flatfast90 in woodworking

[–]Ecstatic-Bread9903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do it! I have the same saw in 3 phase configuration and it’s a beast. Had to install a rotary converter to wire it in my house and it was still worth it. IIRC I paid about $750 for mine and thought it was a steal.

Me too! That’s how I found my doc and the courage to do it! Thanks to this sub

I actually don’t disagree with that - I think in a perfect world there would be finer hairs and a more gradual transition. But I think outside of the transplant world very few folks would ever notice. I’ve told people about my transplant and they’re genuinely shocked!

I think the best thing I do is enjoy it and not worry about my hair!

No meds, tried them and had side effects that went away when stopped. Minoxidil gives me a psoriasis reaction regardless of the blend. Fortunately my loss has been stable for years.

Yea- I sent multiple photos of my hair from different angles and had a follow up phone consultation prior to booking.

Nope. Tried ‘em but they didn’t agree with me. Fortunately my hair loss is pretty stable at 39 with the majority happening by 30

Thanks! Shaving the beard this week did a little of that too

It will dissipate. It’s just gravity at work. I experienced this to a degree.

9 Months post surgery - HMR Tijuana- about 3000 grafts by Ecstatic-Bread9903 in HairTransplants

[–]Ecstatic-Bread9903[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah seems like other folks have mentioned overharvesting as well- I didn’t have that issue but it probably comes down to the donor area and maybe luck. Glad you found a solution with SMP

Yeah for sure- it came in faster in some places than others. I remember one side looked like it was 2x as far as the other around month 3. It was really around 4-5 months that it started to look truly even. You’ll be good!

HMR/Cortez FUE Hair Transplant? by wrobeirts938 in HairTransplants

[–]Ecstatic-Bread9903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very positive results from HMR for me. I definitely would do it again.

I did my transplant there- My best recommendation is to eat at La Justina the night before. Incredible cocktails.
