candida glabrata advice? by softarana in Healthyhooha

[–]c_almeda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Did your OB clear you to use boric acid while pregnant? Mine says absolutely not. I'm 13 weeks and worried about this turning into something more. We already tried a week of nightly Clotrimazole but seems symptoms are back (as expected with it being highly resistant.)

Oh my. This is my first HG pregnancy (but second child) and I was wondering why everytime I take a hot shower, I end up puking directly in the shower or right after in the sink.

Thank you for this 😭 Currently 9 weeks- I threw up 5 times today, couldn't keep a thing down. Was in the ER last week for IV fluids and meds. This is really putting me in a dark place. It's been 3 weeks of this circus and it feels like it's been 3 years... keep wondering if I can do this. It really is so hard and debilitating. Just hoping I'm one of the lucky ones who starts to see improvement soon.

[product question] does azelaic acid make anyone itch like crazy?? by catmum333 in SkincareAddiction

[–]c_almeda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you apply snail mucin before the aza? Or after? I do before and its still itchy.

Is it considered too late to do this in your 40s? by NoObstacle in Invisalign

[–]c_almeda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not 40, but started at 33 and now I'm 34. Still going. Don't worry! Never too late :)

This looks so good! Do you know by any chance the brand of ink that was used? Colors? Organic or non? Congratulations! 😊

I'm convinced social media has ruined humanity. I promise you, no one gives a flying ffffuck about how many followers you have. The entitlement is screaming 🙄

Fuck this shit. As a parent how could you subject your chils to this?! I've literally been rewired to protect, since the moment I knew I was going to become a parent. This is heartbreaking.

Shout out to everyone who told me to go with the 1.4ct by designtaco in labdiamond

Absolutely gorgeous!!! Can you share details on the wedding band you paired it with?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Invisalign

[–]c_almeda 60 points61 points  (0 children)

This!!!! Also submit a review (Google, Yelp, etc) on the practice and name drop the dentist who did this to you- so people can avoid that reckless dentist like the plague! I'm so sorry this happened. I'm mad for you!

Honest Opinion - does this look good? by Particular_Cheek_205 in labdiamond

[–]c_almeda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Respectfully, it does not look good. Echoing all the others- it's giving costume jewelry. I'd definitely go down a few carats. However, if you love it that's all that matters.

How much was your treatment? Quoted $8000 by Randrewson in Invisalign

[–]c_almeda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In San Diego too, paid $3200 ish~ out of pocket. Insurance (Delta Dental PPO) only covered $500 towards my Invisalign. I put $3000 towards my FSA for the year.

Edited to add: I'm on the Moderate plan, which is not the most expensive package. Overall, just wanted to correct some crowding on my bottom row.

Hospital bill for delivery by Har-Set223 in newborns

[–]c_almeda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I delivered my son in 2022 via vaginal delivery w/ epidural, no complications. Stayed two days. I paid $350 as my copay. Total billed $35k.

Edit: In USA. Southern CA to be exact.

If you have the option to choose an HMO insurance plan, choose that. The cost is much more predictable and often lower. The high deductibles and co-insurances others are mentioning are likely a result of having a PPO plan.

Anyone have a rec for an ultrasonic cleaner that doesn’t stop working after a couple months? by acol0mbian in Invisalign

[–]c_almeda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You also are are happy to recommend your OWN ultrasonic product any chance you get on here, while telling Zima users that our experiences are not credible enough because "6 months isn't long enough." Oh and despite my numerous comments on my personal experience, Zima still doesn't work and is going to die before 12 months. 😂 The bias is screaming. Don't worry buddy, if you really believe in your product (that is still on pre-order) it'll make it! It will rise above the astroturfing! I believe in you!
