Cheap recipes

Hi! I am looking for recipes that do not cost a lot while still tasting great. Looking for a recipe that I do not have to stand at a stove for too long, as I get tired very easily and am weak. I do all my prep sitting down so the prep is not much of an issue. We like flavor and are not picky. We do not have any dietary restrictions besides a peanut allergy. I used to love cooking, so I would LOVE to hear suggestions! Thank you!

-if you have any suggestions on how to further modify cooking to make it easier, I would love that too!

Progressively getting worse

hyperthroidism/Graves’ disease> killed thyroid w/radioactive iodine> weird shortness or breath with multiple Er visits and no clear answers that resolved a couple of months later with a lot of medications. i do not have the sjorgens markers but am being treated for it

in August 2025 I was experiencing muscle weakness, nerve, muscle and joint pain. in November, I got to where I could barely walk. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I do not feel it is correct and something is progressively happening. I got a little better with medications, a little better with physical therapy.

i am still very weak. 5lbs is heavy. my right side of my body is weakest. I have a limp on my right leg. that’s the side that went numb a lot. now my neck feels on fire and I get headaches very bad daily. my arms and legs go tingly, like they’re about to go numb daily. my muscles are all very tight. I started slurring my words and having trouble getting my mouth to form words. I have a stutter now. but it’s only bad if I’ve been standing or walking for an hour or more. sadly, I still have to work so it’s everyday I’m in pain and struggling. I got to the point I used chat got and narrowed it down to something with my brain stem or spinal cord. PLEASE GIVE ME SUGGESTIONS OF WHAT THIS COULD BE. Please help me, I just want to be a young hot 26 ur old, not a sad disabled 26 year old

Undiagnosed and declining

I have been to countless doctors/specialists but I feel that due to my age (26f) they are not taking me seriously. i have a worsening issue of slurred speech, memory issues and can no longer follow simple multi step directions. I was previously very smart, capable and independent. I have been falling more. I have grade 3 muscle strength and my right leg drags often, If not dragging then just a limp of varying intensity. when I use my muscles “too much” (which is just walking or moving) the limp gets worse and I fall/tip over more. My hands don’t alway do what I want them to in terms of movements, again right side is worse. I use to be very fit, I worked two jobs and did so much after work. I loved hiking but now I can’t even go for walks by myself. I can’t even sit up from a laying position, it’s a fight to sit up. I also have chronic nerve, muscle and joint pain. I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia and sjrogens, but I fibromyalgia is not the correct diagnosis. i do have tumors on my neck I am having looked at again (previously benign but they are growing and I’ve had them since 2012/2013). I had an mri with and without contrast to see if I had MS when the symptoms started and they saw no signs. my right side goes numb and tingly but not fully numb. I feel as though the diagnosis of fibromyalgia has stopped anybody from taking my case seriously and since the Falling, weakness and what I believe to be neurological issues are getting worse, I’m worried my Life will be ruined. Please, any advice or diagnosis’s to look into. Please please please help me

did have hyperthyroidism and grave disease that I couldn’t get under control with medication so I used radioactive iodine to kill my thyroid and my levels went extremely hypo but are now starting to regulate. symptoms started after the radioactive iodine.
