rags, I salute your commitment to the history of the old place, really I do, but plywood is not a historic material. Would it not be better to remove that and start with underlying material that will keep the old tiles from having to be taken off in 5 years? Here we would use a type of sheetrock with built-in moisture prevention....

I have a selection now of old labs going back a number of years, from one of the providers who "missed" my thyroid Dx. I have a few more laboratories to solicit for some missing pieces-- one would have probably been a more complete testing battery by an endo but first I have to spot that appointment in time before the hospital will go back into what are now archives, and I am not sure I need them just yet-- what I have plus new labs I will get in June will probably add up to a Hashimoto's Dx. For now I am going with what I know.
