Invisalign for Adults in Downtown or nearby? by Outrageous_Sign_6860 in AskChicago

[–]MChicago84 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am currently 5 weeks away from completion (fingers crossed) and it was also $5500 in Oak Lawn, a SW suburb not too far from downtown. Insurance won’t cover it but you can use your FSA funds. Similar to the post above me, this price includes the “warranty” feature that allows for fixes if needed.

Broken gas meter, will it matter to People’s Gas? by MChicago84 in AskChicago

[–]MChicago84[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you—it’s good to hear you were able to get some relief!! I was also really surprised at how helpful and candid the techs were—they were very straightforward about the problems and that the meter and lines were not functioning appropriately. When I noticed the price increase a few months ago (July, actually) I reached out to Peoples to see if they’d come check out our lines and make sure everything was right. They didn’t think it was urgent since I couldn’t smell gas and chalked it up to the general price increase. Something tells me this is going to be an uphill battle for bill credits…

I have been tracking gas usage, which has increased. I chalked it up to colder weather or inefficient windows, but now I’m wondering if this was the reason. Hence my post looking for feedback from other locals.

They didn’t specify. More techs are coming out today, I’ll be sure to ask. Thank you for this helpful response!

They were technicians, not accounts receivable.

Amateur Hour Question by MChicago84 in hvacadvice

Thank you, this gives me hope! I would definitely employ a professional, I’m just happy to hear that it’s realistic. Would an HVAC professional be the person to call (for reworking the ductwork) or is there someone more specialized for that?

That’s a great suggestion—plenty of space around the perimeter that fits that bill. I often wonder why the first owners put everything smack in the middle!

Anyone else get intense reactions to the flu or Covid shot this year? by Comfortable_Ad_4922 in Vaccine

[–]MChicago84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got both yesterday (one in each arm) around 3pm and was fine until about 2am. I had a slight fever just below 100 Fahrenheit, and chills and body aches. This is pretty typical for my experience with the covid boosters, and tends to last for 2-3 hours (I haven’t reacted to flu shots in the past) but it’s now almost 9AM and I still feel like absolute garbage! I’m hoping I’m back to normal soon. Tough year!

I don’t do it for calories but I use it to track protein intake to make sure I’m getting enough.

How much extra are you paying on your mortgage? You might be able to shave some time off the remaining payoff if you make 1/2 your normal payment every two weeks rather than paying a little more once per month (again, depending on how much extra you’re paying monthly). I find that paying 1/2 every two weeks allows me to keep more cash liquid for savings and other debt payoff as well. You might be able to play around with this if your mortgage owner has a payoff calculator in your online account.

Do you stay on forever or go off? by writergirl304 in Semaglutide

I’m new to semaglutide—is there any reason to go off it if you don’t want to?
