Only the BON can answer the question of whether any stipulations on your LVN license will carry over to your RN license. You can call or drop them an e-mail and ask, though be aware that they may refuse to give you a definite answer until you've actually applied for RN licensure and submitted all necessary documentation.

If the BON wants you to come in front of them to address this matter, I strongly recommend that you have a lawyer involved. Remember that the BON is not the nurse's friend. You can find lawyers versed with dealing with BONs here: TAANA Executive Office - Home.

Best of luck.
