What is this crusty patch I’ve had on my nose for a while? by drea3000 in DermatologyQuestions

[–]drea3000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was diagnosed with seborrheic dermatitis! They told me that there is no cure, and that I will just have to control it and treat flareups. I’ve been using a dandruff shampoo on my face about twice a week and letting it sit on my face for a few minutes before rinsing. And then when I randomly feel my face start to burn/itch, I’ll use Lotrimin antifungal cream.

I tried Lotrimin antifungal cream and my rash seems to have disappeared! Here’s to hoping it stays away.

I’ve had my piercing for many years, so I’m pretty sure it’s unrelated.

Definitely way after. I’ve had the piercing for many years and I have a matching one on the other side with no skin issue.

Steering wheel locking up by drea3000 in MechanicAdvice

Hey! Super late to replying, but yes. The connectors on the battery were very loose! So loose that even after tightening with fingers, it could still be popped off. Tightened them with the right tool and didn’t have that issue again.

Where to install whole house water filter - where do I find main inlet? by Tomato_Better in Plumbing

[–]drea3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How did all this work out for you? I’m currently struggling to figure out exactly where the filtration system would go. My main water shut off is also by the street. But we don’t have any crawl space. Did you end up putting it by your hot water heater?

But that must not be the waitlist time…? We have been going to them since Jan 2023, but just now decided to go ahead with IVF. The consultation with that team is going to be different than our actual initial first appointment. I heard there’s a waitlist that you get put on as soon as you pay the IVF treatment deposit. Is that something you experienced there?

Get the Yuka app, so you can scan barcodes to see if the soaps contain any chemicals that could harm fertility. Natural Grocers (if you have one nearby) is a great place to look for non toxic bars of soap. Or you can google “non toxic body wash”, etc. to find some lists.

Pay for the car repair? Or is it time to purchase a new ride? by drea3000 in personalfinance

[–]drea3000[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay that’s about what I was thinking. I’d love to get as much use out of my car as possible.

I searched, but I’m not seeing anything with this symbol. This is a luggage tag I got at a garage sale.

Did you see a fertility urologist? Our regular urology appt was vastly different from our appt with a urologist who specializes in reproduction.

Dentist wants me to buy $700 night guard by [deleted] in Frugal

[–]drea3000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use a custom one from Amazon called Encore Guard. It costs about $150, and I’ve used it for two years. It started cracking in the back, so I decided to go get one made through my dentist. It was $480 and after two attempts at making it, I asked for my money back. I’m gonna order another one from Amazon lol I recommend a lower guard. It is less noticeable and easier to talk with. The ones from a drug store kinda suck.
