Suggestions for pets (bunnies)

Hello! 1500sq ft Pets - dog and rabbits/hay Lightweight/shoulder injury Budget $500-$700

You guys are such experts. I have been reading all these posts and I see a lot of expertise!

We have around 1500sq to vacuum, mostly carpet but a tiny bit of laminate also. We have a dog and two rabbits that shed insane amounts but they also have hay. I pick most of it up but the vacuum still will have to go over hay.

I also have a shoulder injury and can’t push around or carry a heavy vacuum. We have a robot vacuum for maintenance and had been using a Tineco stick vacuum for the past two years and it just died. I need a replacement and was hoping for something to do a better job than the Tineco d

r/pilonidalcyst•

A few months ago I started feeling pain when I would sit down. Mostly right as I sat down and felt my crack stretch, and it would maintain a bit while sitting. Not terrible pain for anything, but I noticed it.

Had a physical and had my Dr take a look. I had felt maybe a bit of a bump under the skin but no cyst and no pain or tenderness in the area. She noted the area was a little pink and perhaps a bit inflamed and it was right in the correct spot for a pilonidal cyst but it just hasn’t fully formed. She made no mention of a sinus or any opening.

I had told her that I would feel relief after using Hibiclens but that I don’t use that every day. She said if it began to form a cyst or started

Hello, I was suggested LDN by my gastroenterologist for chronic digestive pain, nerve pain and anxiety. However, I have been on opiates for 20 years with no plans on discontinuing. She suggested I speak to my pain management Dr for their thoughts. Pain Dr felt her suggestions for LDN were valid, but I am on a fairly high dose of hydrocodone (10/325 and I take 4-5 a day) it would be difficult. So pain Dr suggested I bring it down to 4 a day and the LDN will still be effective and not cause issues.

So I came on here after seeing this board suggested in ChronicPain to get suggestions on timing of my dose - Dr and Pharmacy said 4 hours from a Norco and wanted to see if anyone had any suggestio

Is there a service that combines the two? I have done Factor, Hello Fresh and Home Chef. I recently signed up for Blue Apron because I thought you could combine the Meal Kits and Ready Meals into one order and you cannot. It’s one or the other or place two orders in one week with two shipping charges.

We generally do 3 meal kits a week and 2 ready meals for a total of 5 days of meal kits/ready meals.

r/Sjogrens•

I keep getting ads for Armra Colostrum which is touted to help with digestion and IBS. But it also talks about how it helps boost immunity. Which got me thinking about how my Rheumatologist told me not to take a daily immune support vitamin as it went against all the medications I take to reduce my immunity.

Has anyone taken Armra or any other colostrum products? It seems like it’s immunity building is through probiotics and prebiotics which I can’t imagine would go against the Plaquenil and CellCept I am currently on.

Can sjogrens make mosquito bites worse?

This is probably a long shot connection but figured I’d ask.

I have always been a tasty treat for mosquitos and am covered in scars from scratching them as a kid. But don’t remember really ever getting welts or pain with them. Moved to Las Vegas in my early 20s and didn’t have to deal with them.

Back in the Midwest on a wooded lot next to a marsh. So prime mosquito land and this is our second full summer here and I’m being eaten alive. It wouldn’t be so bad if they weren’t turning into horrible welts and in some cases mild swelling and irritation up the leg past where the welts are. The welts are larger than quarters. I have 4 active ones on my leg

I don’t want to make this a novel, so I will try to be brief.

I was originally dx’d with Lupus around 20 years ago and have been taking either Plaquenil or Methotrexate since then. Currently on Plaquenil and a lot of other medications for pain (hydrocodone, Gabapentin and meloxicam) and other issues.

My Lupus dx was never perfect and eventually became “unknown autoimmune disease with Lupus like symptoms” New Rheumatologist in a new state and he is now convinced instead of having mild lupus (no organ involvement) I have severe Sjogrens. Which makes a lot of sense as I have a lot of neurological symptoms, and verbal issues/brain issues. He says mine mimics MS a little and explains why I have

I hope I am doing this right!

I am plus size and currently wearing a 44D to DD from Lane Bryant and really enjoy front close racer backs. I have a bad shoulder and the position of the straps is much more comfortable and so is clasping in the front.

However no matter how much boning any of my bras have after a long day, or on second day wear the sides start collapsing and digging into my sides. I basically have a fat roll (fun) from years of bras digging in and now all bras fall into the roll. It doesn’t matter if it is a bralette, boned bra or a light weight t-shirt bra - they all do it after a long day.

Would a long line bra help? Obviously I know none of you can see me, but are there an

I love color! I have dozens of colorful palettes and I have my neutrals, but I am looking for more muted colorful palettes. All the color, but with the saturation turned down.

I have IT Cosmetics Naturally Pretty Palettes, Viseart Cool and Dark Mattes - But I am looking for more.

Lime Crime Venus XL 2 is on my list, but looking for some more ideas.

Thanks!!

r/AskHR•

My husband (doesn’t have Reddit) is going to be switching jobs by the end of the year after working for the current company for roughly 3.5 years. Typically, his company pays Christmas bonuses the first Friday of December and he wants to collect this bonus if possible while giving his current company as much of a notice that he is leaving as possible. He has a very positive relationship with his local supervision, but HR is handled out of state by the company headquarters. The new company wants to know his intended start date and wants him to start ASAP.

If he gives his current company roughly 4 weeks notice that he intends to leave (double the 'norm'), is that a good enough jesture to pot

I don’t know the girl that well, but I heard from someone else that this one girl we both know is a abusive parent.

Verbally - swearing, calling the kids names, saying “fuck odd kid 1. You fucking bother me” and other uncool phrases were also used.

Physically abusing her children. Smacks on booties when bad, even if it didn’t warrant such a discipline. Full on smacks the 2 year old and drags him upstairs where all my friend could hear downstairs was the baby screaming and THUMPS coming from upstairs. I assume the 2 was ok, because my friend didn’t mention it.

I know if I call CPS that they would find a clean, Healthy place to live. Both parents in the home and working.
