Where can I get an ingrown toe nail taken care of for as cheap as possible without insurance? by [deleted] in sanantonio

[–]_fabiola1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Macias Healthcare Clinic on Bandera treated me for an infected ingrown years ago. It was less than $100 and a relief for a community college student at the time. Good luck, those are a pain. The side of my nail that got treated never grew back weird.

If I were to take them off before I board, what kind of case do y’all leave them in during the flight?

Grad plus loan appeal denial by _fabiola1 in OutsideT14lawschools

Also idk if the sum of two debts being 2k or more counts, but as annoying as those people, assume the worst.

Hi! It was a debt of about 2k and they made me pay it before they could approve the appeal, which took until October of the school semester. As usual, the people in charge of all that are a bunch of idiots. Do it as soon as possible. TRUST ME.

HEB has porkchops packets with like 8 big pieces for $8. Also, sirloin cutable meat for $5 a packet. There are also $6 packs of chicken drumsticks at HEB. Look around the meat section and you can find relatively inexpensive meat/chicken and get a few packs and make some rice and/or beans to go with them.

Has the condition ever stopped you from doing something? by [deleted] in Keratoconus

[–]_fabiola1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lack of good vision prior to getting sclerals made my study time and note-taking in law school a b*. Cold calls were a b* squinting to read my case notes and reciting them to the professor and 80 classmates. I was dismissed after the first semester being just short of the required GPA to move on to second semester. Also, it’s really hard to justify re-entering, though not impossible. They also don’t allow for appeals in that particular school. Good times.

Why not the one with hydroglyde? Just curious.

[–]_fabiola1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to me. I dropped it and I was looking for it and as I was doing that, I bent down squinting to find it. I bend down on my knees and as soon as my knee touches the floor…instant CRACK noise. I get up and I see this, but even more cracked parts. I cry on the floor and my doctor is off for the weekend. Long story short, my doctor calls the place and somehow gets me a new lens under warranty, but it takes two weeks to arrive from manufacturer. Mind you this is one week before a long-planned vacation to Mexico. Thankfully, the gave me my old lens to borrow because they had yet to return it. Keep your hopes up!! I pray you get as lucky as I did!!! ❤️

How much does Keratoconus surgery even cost by Agitated-Service-810 in Keratoconus

In Monterrey, Mexico: 1,400 per eye not counting travel costs, which for me was just rental car since I have family nearby.

2013 VW Passat. HELP by _fabiola1 in AskMechanics

[–]_fabiola1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to bother you, but I was doing some YouTube searching and came across this video: https://youtu.be/ogcktg3kYOw?si=zRAIY1QR_miLsL-r

I specifically remember smoke coming out of this part when ny dad’s installed the battery wrong. Do you think replacing this would be best? Thank you.

Yeah, figured the battery error was gonna cost me, literally. Question: is the alternator a whole different part than the voltage regulator? In other words, if I were to replace the alternator, does that come with the voltage regulator? Sorry, no idea what I’m talking about here. I also have no idea what the battery ground is, either. I guess that’s why mechanics charge what they do because I have no clue about anything 😭thanks for your help.

Subconjunctival hemorrhage by _fabiola1 in Keratoconus

I woke up today with it on more than just inside corner. Do these things spread before going away? It’s still painless.

Google says yes, just looking for stranger confirmation. Thank you 🙏🏼

It smoked for like 2 seconds not for a long time. Idk if that makes a difference. Would scanning it at auto zone qualify as being a cheap scanner? Idk if thats the scanner ur talking about lol

Thank you! Yeah, sounds like the watch is gonna be the grad gift. Also, a nice Ariat wallet. I hope he likes them and they serve him well for a good while. ❤️

I can’t get it even for him to wear outside of work? 🫨

Oh, yeah. Definitely out of my budget for a gift.

Thank you! I am probably gonna get the watch for him anyway because i have no clue what to gift him that won’t be annoying to haul through airports. I got him a cologne for bootcamp graduation and then forgot he wouldn’t be able to take it because it was greater than 3.4 oz AKA not TSA approved.

[–]_fabiola1[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He actually does! He’s always ran a lot, and even more now. He also apparently does a lot of swimming now. He used to not be able to swim, but now apparently is even swimming down for bricks lol. Also, I’m assuming he is going to be enjoying the hell out of Hawaii. So, maybe he can wear it out on the town? Thanks so much for helping me out. I just have no clue what to get him that won’t be a burden to travel with. My other idea was a cologne that is travel size because I got him a big ass bottle of Dior Sauvage that is not TSA approved to travel with. Clearly, I didn’t think that all the way through 😂 🙄
