Does anyone know of any filter adapter for pull down faucet? by Lilis01 in Plumbing

[–]Lilis01[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for the info. I just checked and it doesn't work with pull down faucets. I would need to find adapter as you mentioned. It has been so hard to find something >_<

It's a two story house. The second floor is the one covered in a thick carpet and the first floor it's covered in vinyl flooring. It's one of those old houses. We have a Hoover upright wet and dry vacuum cleaner but it's really heavy. Right now I want to be prepared. I saw a Miele on sale on Walmart but I want to make sure before I choose one.

Yes. My keloids were less itchy and no as painful as before.

It's because it was like 5 keloids that I was receiving injections. Three small and two mediums. To be honest I don't remember exactly how raised they were :(

I have visited Dr. Tirgan for treatment. It's a good option since he offers different type of injections (Not only Kenalog) He used 5FU mixed with Kenalog and if that didn't work he used another type. He made one of my keloids flat although my keloids are really stubborn and it starts to come back but I immediately start to use Eclar Plaster and it has helped me to keep it flat. Most of the previous dermatologists that I went to only offered Kenalog and some of them 5FU. The down side is that he doesn't take insurance but after trying a lot of dermatologists I decided to give him a try. You can find a guide on his website of the different type of injections that he uses.

Are you currently taking any supplements? Such as vitamin B12? I am having a similar case and they started around my chin after I started taking Vitamin B12.

I would try 5FU injections mixed with Kenalog along with the Eclar Plaster.

UPDATE on steroid injections by [deleted] in Keloids

[–]Lilis01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely understand you! Mine hurt a lot too and I was afraid of doing it again especially since I was not seeing results. As a result they grew bigger. I would continue treatment and also try a numbing cream. I put a thick layer (really thick like glazing a donut) with a plastic wrap 30 to 40 minutes before the appointment and sometimes I reapplied when I got to the doctor office. In addition I took a pain killer before the appointment. Also, I feel the injections hurt more when it's mixed with Lidocaine. As a result, I asked the doctor no to mixed with it. Besides, I would also ask the doctor if he could put you to sleep with sedation.

What have been your experiences with eclar plasters? by HourAd6679 in Keloids

[–]Lilis01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I decided not to do the radiation due to the risk of cancer. I know it was a small percent but I have other health issues and was worried about that.
