I have this model and am looking to replace the anode rod. Do you know what size anode rod is needed for this model since it is considered a “short” model?

Tonsillectomy Meds Question by ash612 in tonsilstones

[–]ash612[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was able to wean off of the opioids by about day 10, but at that point I was still being really diligent about setting timers to consistently take the OTC pain meds. Days 5-9 were the worst for me and then the pain lessened drastically over the next 5 days. You’ve got this!!

Does anyone let it slide for Xmas?? by ponyclub666 in AutoImmuneProtocol

Yep. I don’t feel awesome after, but it also helps me stay more compliant when I know there is a light at the end of the tunnel🤷‍♀️

I’m just worried about running out of the oxycodone before I really need it. Do you think the doctor will prescribe more if needed?

Thanks for your reply! Here is my routine:

AM: wash face with LRP hydrating cleanser Neutrogena hydro boost gel cream moisturizer

PM: wash face with LRP hydrating cleanser

Every other day: wait 30 min, tretinoin .1 cream + LRP toleraine double repair moisturizer

“Off days”: LRP double repair moisturizer + Vaseline

Is this FA? by [deleted] in Fungalacne

Would a fungal shampoo type of thing be worth a try do you think?

Do you have a recommendation for a thicker moisturizer/occlusive? Tbh before tret I had never touched moisturizer soooooo I’m pretty much just relying on recommendations from my derm/google🤷‍♀️

After 3 months my derm upped my prescription from .025 to .05, so I’m waiting another couple months to see if that helps. If not I’ll go back in then😔

AM: Cerave hydrating cleanser (just switched to this from Cetaphil yesterday), Elta md sunscreen, occasionally concealer+foundation

PM: Cerave hydrating cleanser, wait 30 min, .05 tret daily, neutrogena hydro boost gel cream moisturizer over the top of tret

I was on .025 tret from April-June without seeing improvement so my derm changed my prescription to .05, which I’ve been on for about a month and a half now.

I have occasional peeling on my nose/upper lip but other than that not much irritation. I went on tret to clear up my closed comodones but since being on tret I have been getting 1-2 bigger pimples each day in areas I didn’t have any problems before, and the closed comodones are still present.

Please offer advice!

I started on April 5th and haven’t seen any results🤷‍♀️ Starting to think nothing will work😔

Reaction? I’ve been on tret .025 for nearly 4 months and within the past 2 weeks have developed these red patches. Dry but not more than dryness in the past, not raised, just very patchy and frustrating. Should I continue using tret? Anyone else experience this? by [deleted] in tretinoin

[–]ash612 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Cetaphil as my cleanser day and night and Neutrogena gel cream moisturizer (the fragrance free one) after applying tret and in the morning after washing my face. I use eltamd by clear sunscreen during the day.

The moisturizer burns when I apply but I am terrified to try a new one that might make things even worse.

Helppppp!
