I work on an ORTHO/MED floor, hubby and step-son are both appling for nursing school next fall.

I'm with the rest of you...hard to find this board, unless you are REALLY looking...and who knew to REALLY look? I love talking to other nurses, though, especially ones with the same typew of "issues" I have! I'm just beginning the journey with all my consults. Had the initial, now getting cardiac, pulmonary, psych, dietary, and EGD clearance...and I'm an otherwise healthy person! Can't imagine the visits I'd have if I had serious comorbidities like DM, HTN, etc! Besides the weight (303 and 5'6"), my other problems are the usual: GERD, back pain, probably (but not diagnosed) some sleep apnea. But then, I'm only 29, and could easily see myself with MUCH more serious problems in a few years if I don't do something permanent about it! Anyway, I love being a L&D nurse in NC, and just this week helped a friend (another L&D nurse) deliver her baby, which was an AWESOME experience; the first delivery I've gotten teary-eyed since nursing school! I'll try to do my part and keep up with this board, probably at weird times since I work nights! See y'all here!

Hey Megan, I'll put your profile in my favorites. My journey is just starting too.

I just found this message board today. I did not notice it until a few minutes ago. I am a nurse at KC VA, my surgery date is 2/9 so it's almost here. Janice

Hi, Janice. Your surgery date is coming up fast. We will be staying in KC on 2/8 and heading on to Omaha on your surgery day. I'll be sending good thoughts your way for an easy recovery. Jeanie in MO
