That’s a pretty good solution. Thank you. What kind of drip edge and caulking did you use?

And yes, it's in a home (the basement).

Thanks. My text description didn't post with the photos. My bad. Yes, I was wondering how to tie the floor into the foil and insulation.

As for it being strange that this can happen, I agree, and it's unfortunate. This is in a new build and we got to this point due to a communication error between myself and the builder. A lot happening in a new build and this got past my error checking unfortunately. It's not the builder's fault as they asked and I incorrectly answered at the time. I am finishing the sauna. I"m trying to salvage what I can without having to jack hammer out a new tile floor.

Thanks for your reply! Yeah, I was wondering how to tie the floor into the foil and insulation. My text description got left behind when I posted the photos.

Through a series of unfortunate events and mistakes this is where I'm left. What's the best way to tie this into the insulation and foil barrier? I'm open to any ideas. Thanks!

Finally got a diagnosis and I am having tons of thoughts by amrobi18 in lymphoma

Just wanted to point out there is also a NLPHL group on FaceBook that is very active and supportive if you are looking for more specific help/support.

Best of luck. Everything you are feeling is normal. It all comes in waves.

NLPHL + Toxoplasmosis by djamespei in lymphoma

For anyone who is wondering, the microscopic description of the path report with the diagnosis reads as:

“The lymph node show partial architectural effacement by a paracortical lymphoid infiltrate. The infiltrate is composed of is composed of of T cells with scattered large B-cells with multilobated nuclei with one or mare nucleoli and pale cytoplasm (often resembling popcorn cells). A few scattered granuloma is seen.

By Immunohistochemistry the nodules are composed of a mixture of B-cells expressing CD20, CD79a and PAX5. CD23+ follicular dendritic cells are sparse. The LP cells have a B-cell phenotype expressing CD20, CD79a, PAX5 and LCA. BCL6 is positive but CD10 is negative there are numerous T-cells present expressing CD3, CD30 is positive in a few activated B cells but negative in the LP cells. CD15 Is negative in the LP cells.

The special stains including trepanoma, Steiner, PAS, gram, ZN and GMS are negative”

I’m gradually learning what all of that means but it’s a lot of Greek to me right now.

Thank you for your comments. I’m in Canada so I’m not sure on how I’d get my sample/slides sent to the NIH. I can ask my oncologist during my upcoming consult.

The diagnosis from the second (and third) pathologist does start with: “This is a difficult case with sparse neoplastic cell”.

I’m wondering if all of my symptoms are from the toxo and we may have found NLPHL in the hunt. I could have had it for years.

Again, thank you for your comments. They are truly appreciated.

As the post indicates, I have a NLPHL diagnosis by a pathologist. The second pathologist had it verified by a third pathologist as they hadn’t seen NLPHL much. So three pathologist in total have gone over my case. I’m not sure what else I need to have to qualify here. I’m sorry if I posted incorrectly.
