I noticed the bottom of my dishwasher was looking cloudy, so I turned the top of the filter, and pulled it out.(Counterclockwise ) That was easy, but the gunk collected on it was gross. Hot water and a soft toothbrush took it off. I just put a cup of vinegar in a bowl on the top shelf and am running the clean cycle.

I think a dirty dishwasher filter means soap, bacteria and solids are not being washed off the dishes. For the immuno-compromised, it’s a health risk.

@A MyMyelomaTeam Member Dishwasher? What's that? I've been washing and drying for years upon years. We never had one growing up, and tbh I find the washing to be very relaxing and calming. Drying? Meh, most of the time the stuff sits there and I'll put them away later.

Hi Paula,
Thanks for the valuable info on dishwashers and washing machines. My immune system is still recovering from treatment. I had my first in-home IVIG treatment a couple of months ago, so I'm probably still protected. However, I do try to prevent exposure to anything that will increase my risk of infection...including my new dentist who wears her mask over her mouth but not her nose. The air she breathed was coming out of her nose directly into my mouth. I had to ask her to pull her mask up over both her nose and mouth. She did, but I could tell she didn't like it. So, I am looking for a new dentist.
Also, when I post information that is not directly disease related, i uncheck the "Allow AI to respond" box to avoid an AI response like the one you received. It's located at the bottom of the post on the left side where you write your post.

William,
The drum inside the washing machine is also hiding something. One side is clean and the other side of the drum is full of gunk. I only discovered this, when my sheets would come out with streaks on them. I did not understand what was happening, so if you know me, I took the washing machine apart to see.

Even if one leaves an almost perfect score about customer service, they expect nothing less than all stars. I'm not surprised that reviews are removed.....and I don't think that should be allowed. Surveys and such should just be eliminated. They do little to no good.
