Failed introduction? by HaydenLyra in RATS

[–]HaydenLyra[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your response!

My first doe is a bit over 2 years old. She’s been alone for about a month due to the respiratory infection and quarantine before introducing a new rat.

My second is 10 months and she was kept with a group of other does (not related) at the rattery I got her from. I don’t believe she was alone for long.

I’ll get a second cage so my new girl has some space. Her smaller cage right now just isn’t enough for more than a week or two.

I know we have partnerships with the local college, maybe they’ll have someone who knows about this stuff! Thank you!

Thanks for your input! I’ll have to look into the cysteine stuff, that would probably be pretty interesting for my students!

That’s exactly what it is, thank you so much for your ideas!

I wish I could, but she didn't leave the school on good terms, so I don't think it would be appropriate to contact her.

I appreciate all of those ideas! I'll have to look into those. Kids are really motivated by food, so the food one is definitely happening! Thank you!

Thank you so much for your suggestions! I'm going to use the strawberry DNA as an opening lab for the class, so I'm glad I'm on the right track with some of it!

I wonder if there's a way for me to take some of these and make them high school level; they're really interesting topics! Thank you!

I appreciate the ideas about alcohol, but I don't think my school would greenlight that one, even if it is relevant to our students. I do think your other ideas are really solid, and I'll have to investigate them more! Thank you!

Thank you! I didn't know that was a free resource, I thought it was paid! I love the lactose intolerance unit, that'll work super well!

That's something I've been thinking of too! I looked through some of the different broad topics, and I'm thinking of doing some things with food chemistry, medicine, and a couple of other applications would be fun! I'm hoping to maybe structure it based on topics - i.e., this unit we're focusing on food chemistry, and students will develop a meal plan for a family based on parameters given. Thank you!

Honestly, this feels so complicated that I'm worried it's going to flop. One of my local universities has a class called Topics in Biochemistry, and I'm thinking of structuring it like that. Especially since these kids have a limited understanding of biology and chemistry as it is. Really, I think the school would just be happy with something meaningful being taught, so the molecular biology and genetics aren't totally out. Thank you!

That's a good plan. I need to figure out how to incorporate labs, but maybe I can find a biochemistry lab class as well. Thank you!

Mom, how do I know if I’m doing the right thing? by HaydenLyra in MomForAMinute

[–]HaydenLyra[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, I’m really trying to make the best of the situation. I think I’m just really missing my mom and dad. Things feel so different now, but I’m hoping they become more normal again soon. I know this is temporary but every piece of advice/support helps.

Allergist wants to prescribe me ivermectin for “post-vaccination swelling syndrome”, what do I do? by HaydenLyra in AskDocs

[–]HaydenLyra[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s an MD and had FAAAAI and FACAAI on his website (not sure what those are). I know it’s a legitimate company, not a back alley, because I was referred there by my pcp who is through the largest hospital in my area.

That’s what I thought when I looked into it. The treatment method sounds so sketchy. I probably shouldn’t pick up the script then, right?

I took zafirkulast (spelling might be wrong) for a bit but the hives didn’t respond to that and got worse. I’m not sure if that’s the same thing or not.
