  1. Help! Anyone have any advice for Migraines?

    I wasn't looking for medical advice, just to see if anyone had it done and what their experience was. My choice is going to come down to what the Doctor and I decide, I was just wondering about whether anyone had tried that alternitive because I know...
  2. I have been suffering from migraines and migraine related problems for almost two years (however they think that I've been getting them since I was 4 or 5 years old) I was diagnosed with chronic and serve migraines because normally there isn't a day ...
  3. Rules for the ER (long)

    EmerNurse-- That is exactly what I'm talking about, if your smiling at me while your in the room, then I'm much more likely to be cooperative. I know that when you walk out of the room your probably talking about me, thats life. I try to be an easy p...
  4. Rules for the ER (long)

    TrudyRN I think you totally have the right idea... I understand that working in an ER is hard work, and not like most others, but in nursing nothing is "easy" and nothing isn't just a difficult as any other field. Yes, ED nurses have to deal with the...
  5. Rules for the ER (long)

    Totally agree with that one... I dislocated my knee cap... my knee cap was just put back in place by the Othro doc an they tell me to keep still while they bend my knee around for x-rays.. right...
  6. Rules for the ER (long)

    As for rules of the ED, if you come in feeling like you are going to vomit at one in the morning, don't sit in the waiting room and make out with your wife, it's gross
  7. Rules for the ER (long)

    Once again.. this started out having absolutely nothing to do with me... SO I WILL RESTATE AGAIN 90% of people in here have said that they are sick of nasty grumpy patients, and ALL I SAID was if you would have a little compassion and maybe a smile o...
  8. Rules for the ER (long)

    Apparently no one sees that my point has been made because things that had NOTHING to do with my point keep coming up, so yeah thats for the sarcasm
  9. Rules for the ER (long)

    Ok I have worked in and ED and I've work in other parts of the hospital, and maybe it's just my personality but I can keep a smile on my face all day long no matter what comes my way. I never said that ED nurses were not good at what they do or any o...
  10. Rules for the ER (long)

    Do you think I haven't done all of these things, the fact is in the middle of the night at this hospital (that is magnet status by the way) the procedure is that you are admitted through the ED. Thats out of my control, and if I did not feel that I w...
  11. Rules for the ER (long)

    Okay first of all being sent to the ER to be admitted to a floor is the way that they tend to do it, I have seen it done that way many times during the times I've spent in the ED an worked in a hospital. Second I'm not talking about being asked abou...
  12. Rules for the ER (long)

    I find that a lot of ED nurses are not very happy to be there, and to be honest if there weren't people coming in there every day there wouldn't be a need for ED nurses. My problem is the nurses who can't so much as give you a smile. Anyone that goes...
  13. OB in the ED

    I also forgot to add that I work nights, so yes during the day we have patients go straight to the floor (well at least for now, out hospital is talking about not letting anyone past the second floor (Main Floor) unless they are accounted for on one ...
  14. OB in the ED

    I figured that would be the answer, but I was just wondering if there were any strange things in nursing school that made you scared to handle it or whatever. The thing that always gets me though is when the nurse in the ED says well her water broke,...
  15. OB in the ED

    I guess I should have been a little more specific, a downfall of mine. I'm talking about the Mom who has had a normal pregnancy, no problems thus far, has called her OB and told them she is on the way, she gets into the ED and her water happens to...
