Long story...
Monday: downstairs toilet backed up. Plunging did not help. Left toilet along until auger could be purchased. No other issues with other drains.
Wednesday: purchased auger from Home Depot. Got the toilet to flush 3 times but a lot of bubbling and water level would not raise to normal level. Washing machine running, dishwasher running, shower running - toilet backed up downstairs. Called plumber - augered from clean out line - everything seems OK. Plumber mentioned he wants to run video camera since clean out line still has standing water.
Today: Went to change diverter valve to other drain field - diverter valve 1/2 full of sewer water. Could this be why there is standing water in my clean out line?
I'm really worried this is going to cost a lot of money. I'm waiting on plumber to do the video inspection - this is no charge since i already paid out the wazoo for the main line clean out the other day.
Can someone help me calm down?
