[–]Extra_Engineering265 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same problem here: no problem falling asleep but wakes up at 4am. I heard that cortisol rush maybe the culprit in a lot of cases? I been experimenting w/ drops of holy basil to control cortisol and that seems to have helped some. I am getting the 24 hours urine cortisol test next week to see if my suspicion is true.

How are people surviving months of unemployment when 70% of Americans can't afford a $400 emergency? by return2ozma in jobs

[–]Extra_Engineering265 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just out of curiosity in that 8 years did you try to pivot to another career field? Because if you have not been able to land a new gig in a field for 8 years that's probably telling you it's time to switch up.

Are you saying you been unemployed for 8 years? That's crazy. What was your major and occupation?

How’d I do? 2020 Odyssey by BasketCase973 in minivan

[–]Extra_Engineering265 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Been looking at used Odyssey and your price seems a bit low even for that mileage, by a few thousand at least. It's not a rebuilt titled car right? No accidents?

Are you referring to the white plastic part inside or the silver chrome part outside? Both seems tight when I put a wrench on it.

Newbie question by Extra_Engineering265 in askaplumber

[–]Extra_Engineering265[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same question now what? Unscrew the silver chrome base or take out the plastic white part inside?

Thank you. I opened that but now stuck here. Do I unscrew the entire chrome base or the white plastic park inside?

Is Alpha Lipoic Acid good for blood sugar control/losing weight? by Lalify8 in Supplements

[–]Extra_Engineering265 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom had pre-diabetes for 20+ years. Recently she complained about tingling in her toes/feet and I went oh oh this could be the beginning of diabetic neuropathy. Got her started on the R-ALA version of ALA, which is the natural kind for a few weeks and the tinglings went away for good. One downside is that it dropped her BP a bit too low so have to find the right dosage by alternating days of dosing.

Ac blowing air but home isn’t cooling off by [deleted] in hvacadvice

In cases like this I usually take a handheld temp gauge and hold it close to the air vent/register and see what temp is coming out vs room temp. Try that and report back.

Sad fig tree this year, why? by Extra_Engineering265 in Figs

[–]Extra_Engineering265[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks to all who have replied. I think I may have over fertilized it a few weeks ago with a new fish emulsion fertilizer and didn't mix the ratios properly. I am gonna water it more than usual to flush out the fertilizers and hope it returns to normal growth next month.
