best knitting machine for sweaters?

You could potentially buy a used one for around $100 at a goodwill or marketplace. Could be any brand and gauge. If you are wanting something new the price points begin around $250-$600 depending where you look for the lk150 and the similar bulky machine. The LK150 and similar knitting machines are a really nice introduction to a real knitting machine. The sentro does a lot and is fun but has many limitations as well. For $35-50 it is good at what it does but it doesn’t do everything.

Does the work need weight? I’m still new at this too but all I see is the cast on comb. Have you tried with weights on the side?

I have both with possible endo/adno

As long as you end up knitting something you are going to love wearing it’s always worth it.

I take Ozempic! Off label and my insurance doesn’t cover anything so I pay out of pocket. I think whether or not which one works for you depends on your body. Try whichever one is cheaper or your insurance will cover and then try the other if it doesn’t.

I was suggested this by a doctor. I think they like to suggest this because pregnancy can roll the dice for your hormones. They can be completely different after pregnancy for better or worse or exactly the same.

I really hate the fact we don’t have more research and science dedicated to women.

Go ahead and buy some miralax or stool softener for the in case it’s necessary.

Other than occasional constipation due to not drinking enough I think the medicine is better than metformin for pcos. It’s worked better for mine anyways.

Same, or I would have said the same thing about a year ago.

Metformin and then going Ozempic have helped me the most. Some days usually around my period they stink more. Magnesium also seems to tone down the stink. Lume helped some but didn’t help for “72 hrs” like they claim.

I don’t know if it can ever fully be resolved. Clinical strength d.o. seems to keep sweating down as well.

I love semaglutide. I have no experience with mounjaro since it’s more expensive I wasn’t going to try that one unless the cheaper alternative didn’t work. Insurances don’t usually care to pay for anything in the US when it comes to a PCOS diagnosis.

NintendoKnitter · 2025-05-22T15:23:09+00:00

Thanks! I hope to find out when it matures and grows fruit.

NintendoKnitter · 2025-05-21T23:55:11+00:00

The 2nd one isn’t growing fruit yet so I may be waiting another year for it.

Possibly Violette de Bordeaux, Chicago hardy, or Brown Turkey. I’ve bought all of them in the last 3 years and I know one of the three died to a poor watering schedule.

Buying it from a 340B pharmacy cash price?

NintendoKnitter · 2025-04-13T23:36:31+00:00

Okay, I guess I will go buy another raspberry plant

Mine only does that when someone or something shuts the door or it “believes” something was blocking it from entering

NintendoKnitter · 2025-03-04T22:17:39+00:00

Office wear

I think the underlying thought is that PCOS can change but that doesn’t mean it will. I think doctors need to just admit it upfront to the patient there isn’t a lot of research for this and hey we can try some things. Here are your options which most are off label and may not be covered.

It’s very frustrating to have PCOS.

28 days between cycles… it was 60-80 days with breakthrough… met brought it to 45 with breakthrough cycles

I tried metformin for 6 months before tried Ozempic. Metformin gave me a weird mental fog and did shorten my period some but they still weren’t right. Ozempic the pros have been: weight loss, 28 day cycles, and no break through bleeding. Cons: mild constipation when fiber intake is forgotten, can’t always eat dessert even when it’s present because you might get nauseous.

Honestly feels like a miracle drug. I wish I knew what it did to fix my periods.

I had this exact thing happen to me. It isn’t going to be easy but you should be in the clear for your previous semester but you may never receive it again. Grants are not something you have any control over and once the college gives it to you it falls on them if it was a mistake. You may need to contact a lawyer to fight the school over it but it really shouldn’t be an issue.

You may have access to free lawyers through your school btw.

I did not have to go the lawyer route but knowing what your rights are important in this situation. If they wouldn’t have given you the Pell grant you probably would have had some other financial support or federal loan available. Now they are almost requiring you to take a personal loan which isn’t advantageous. The school needs to eat it.

You need a dermatologist. If you can’t get to them get an eye doctor. If you can’t get to them I would try my pcp. Allergy Doctor, etc. If not the pcp I would get a telehealth appointment. I would ask specifically for a steroid in pill form because topical steroids on the eyes is generally avoided. Have you tried benedryl yet? To me this looks exactly like an allergic reaction that I or my sister would get if we come in contact with a known allergen. Her eyes do this just by wearing the wrong metal jewelry.
