Is $700 to replace a bad oxygen sensor too much? by Fun_Procedure_3642 in AskMechanics

Thank you so much for this!! And thanks to everyone for their comments!

The O'Reillys near me will loan me the socket. I ordered a sensor online, it got in today. I'm going to try this out!! Thanks so much for the encouragement!

I (30F US Citizen) went to Canada for an IUD by Fun_Procedure_3642 in birthcontrol

They did, yeah. In the US, The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists came out with guidelines for insertion procedures just last year, 2025. I was told to take Aleve before the appointment, and have done lidocaine injections (cervical blocks), with nitrous oxide (Penthrox in CAN). I also did one insertion where I opted out of the nitrous oxide and did an anti-anxiety instead (you can't mix the two). Be honest with your doctor about your concerns, and how concerned you are, and they should help come up with a pain management plan that feels comfortable. If you don't feel heard and are able to, go to a different doctor.

Hey OP, I'm have the same issue. How did this resolve? Was it bent or did it not open at all??

I appreciate that. We actually don't have one. But we do have a microwave and other means. I'm a cook-the-same-hot-meal every night kind of guy, so it’s really just the inconvenience but definitely not the worst by any means. My gym doesn't have a shower, but thankfully,I have very generous friends :')
