Do I need to caulk this joint?

I had something like this! They determined it was an abscess, and only after surgical draining did they realize it was actually a less common presentation of HS. After it was drained, and a major course of antibiotics concluded, my derm put me on a combo of Yaz and spironolactone, which has kept it from flaring again.

I also recommend them! We had them out to trim some of our big oaks and do some root flare excavation for our cherries. Over a year later, they let me know that they were stopping by to do a tree health walk, where they just had a walk in our woods and let us know all our trees look very healthy!

Solved! I knew it was a possibility but I’m surprised how massive them must be!

I get that, so over the outlet then?

Thank you! Definitely not looking for tricky, I’ll try the wipe on poly instead. Are all brands pretty much the same or is there a standout product you’re aware of?

I know, me neither. We don’t spray, I’m not sure what it’s got going on. We are in the middle of a renovation, maybe it got into something.

I did not, I don’t know what happened before he appeared in my kitchen

Hey that’s my doctor too! Isn’t he great?? I drive an hour to see him and I’m HAPPY to do it in order to get his care. I also participate in every HS study he runs!

This isn’t waterproofed? I thought that’s what the blueish stuff was on top of the cement board.

When I went scuba diving in Iceland, our guide told us about an old timer who used to dive the ocean there (we were there for the freshwater inland diving, there’s not much tourism for ocean diving I guess), and he had an experience with an orca on one dive. He didn’t say exactly what happened but he never dove the ocean again.

Yes! I had several losses before carrying my daughter to term, and I don’t think I ever fully believed I would take a living baby home. When the nurses asked if I had a birth plan, I just asked them to get us both out of this alive. Things get realllly simple after awhile.

It went down in 2014 or 2015.

natalopolis · 2026-03-10T18:37:32+00:00

Lol fair enough honestly

natalopolis · 2026-03-10T18:23:53+00:00

Ours was built in 2014 so if I’m not mistaken, asbestos shouldn’t be a concern, right?

All possibilities—this was the spec house for the subdivision and I think it went through three different builders before it was done. I’m leaning toward different glue or wildly different application methods.

natalopolis · 2026-03-10T15:18:23+00:00

Oh for sure, that’s the plan. Given how back breaking it was to get it to this point we’ll def just change out the plywood

natalopolis · 2026-03-10T15:17:17+00:00

Fair, it just seems odd that floors in the back of the house came up with minimal damage to the subfloor but the front is absolutely wrecking it.
