Weird question about safety of foods in general

How safe is it to eat at places like fast food restaurants. I'm immunocompromised but really love subway. Just been avoiding it because you know deli meat and leafy greens are meant to be like avoided during pregnancy and old age due to listeria and ecoli risk. How unsafe is it really to eat deli meat? Would getting it toasted help? It seem whenever there's a recall at my supermarkets it's a pre packed sandwich with salad in it. Or salad leaves. Why is that? And where is the safest place to purchase said foods? A farm?

College backpack

So I need an adaptive backpack. But the ones I want aren't sold in the uk. The pottery barn kids ones are so cute and have so many cool features. Does anyone know where I can get them in the uk? Or anything close. The jansport ones are particularly boring unfortunately 💔

£300 from my county? What can I spend this on

I was given three hundred by the county I live in because I am a young adult carers they said i could spend it on a day out for me and my mum. But the heat and my own health issues, I don't want to go out. Should I send it back or am i allowed to spend it on other things? Mum said when she had it years ago. She was asked what she spent it on. I don't want to do the wrong thing

Can anyone with k type pls tell me what it is like? I fear I may have it, and dr said testing may take a while

So I have a hEDS diagnosis, but we've found kyphosis , and when I googled the symptoms yeah, I've had them since early childhood, but I was neglected so it wasn't caught. My gp suggested they may be related, and that one type can mess with your spine and cause this issue. I will get the genetic test done , maybe privately if this starts to take too long. What kind of symptoms do you have?

Just diagnosed with kyphosis

Spinal tech said it could have been due to how I was sat but they weren't there and I did let the tech adjust me to as straight and relaxed as I could be. I also visibly have kyphosis under my clothes. It is awfully painful and i am violently insecure about how I look. Like I've been covering this since early childhood

Anyway I'm due to have full genetic testing done for c-Eds and k-Eds so it could be that. I waited years for this scan. And they didn't give me any follow up advice really. Are there braces, exercises? I have no PT at the moment. But I will soon. I'm changing therapists

Private testing in the uk?

I have a pulmonologist but he is very stretched thin and I can't see him for months. But holy shit this mucus is awful. It's stuck in my throat, it's bloody, sometimes it's chunky and I just can't cope anymore. I want to speed it up and rule CF out. Is it just a sweat test needed. And where can I get this done privately

How to move out?

I'm eighteen and don't want to live at home anymore my brother is also disabled and he has behavioural issues and i just can't cope anymore, plus it's a mess here and I can't tidy it. The place is completely inaccessible for a wheelchair and I just want to live l somewhere accessible and at least a little nice. The only problem is , is that I'm a little bit a reliant on my mum she's technically a parent carer and that also my only income is pip as I'm still in secondary level education. I've asked mum if we can move all of us to a more accessible house. All she has to do is at least ask our council but she keeps putting it off, apparently moving will be too distressing for my brother. But I guess she thinks living in a home that hurts to get around is less distressing than that.

Does kyze's cotton candy scent smell like a smokers house to you yall?

I recently bought a sample off of Etsy. And the cotton candy note is so sweet and so nice. But there's this other note that literally is triggering my gag reflex and I'm really confused? On fragrantica it says it has three notes. Red berries, spun or burnt sugar I'm not sure. And cotton candy. So what is this note that is bothering me so much? Could my sample be out of date or fake? I also got a candy by Thomas Kosmala and it just smells like Burberry her to me?

I really want a perfume with that same cotton candy note. Berry blast pink sugar and sucre de cotton have a different cotton candy smell. Lovely but different. And the library of fragrabce one is completely different to both as well
