surrendering my LPN license

I have surrendered my license due to health issues as well as disciplinary actions from the Board. I love nursing with my whole heart and hate that I have gotten myself into this situation. I am looking into other careers in the health field to pursue. My main goal in life is to help people and at this time I'm unsure of where to start looking. I was told that some careers may not let you sit for boards after you have completed a program. I'm wondering if there are any other nurses or "former" nurses who have been able to sit for boards in another area of the medical field while having "relinquished" their Nursing licensure.
