   Hi All, So, I am a freshmen nursing student and I just had minimally invasive spine surgery last Tuesaday. So, my question is this; is it normal to have a certain level of anxiety and depression afterward? I have been basically debilitated since Oct ...

3. Scrubs for curvy girls

   sarahmizzou replied to ICU_RN_BSN's topic in Uniform/Gear

   I too am curvy. My favorite is Body by Cherokee because they are pull ons but have stretch throughout the whole pant and top. They hold their shape well. I too have wide "sexy child bearin' hips" as my DH likes to call them and thick thighs and I hat...

   sarahmizzou replied to moomoo111's topic in Uniform/Gear

   THEY DO STILL SELL THEM...YAY! If you just google it sites carrying that line will pop up. The Body by Cherokee pair of pants I have are pull ons with no drawstring and the style number is still the same 2094. Hope this helps.

5. Which Cherokee Scrubs are the stretchy ones?

   sarahmizzou replied to moomoo111's topic in Uniform/Gear

   I know its been years since you posted this question but I think what you were looking for was Cherokee BODY. They were 64% polyester, 33% cotton and 3% spandex throughout the whole pant and top. They were the best and I bought ever color of them whe...

   sarahmizzou replied to jxoxo's topic in General Students

   Honestly, if anyone purports that they are mistake free they are lying through their teeth. I don't think the OP came on here looking to be demonized by a bunch of people who claim to be "holier than thou". I certainly don't think anyone on here is q...

7. Yelled at for posting on AN

   sarahmizzou replied to Bormio's topic in General Students

   As long as it doesn't violate HIPPA or any of your school policies they can't really 'do' anything about it. You aren't entiled to privacy when you post on a public forum but that being said.... if you aren't violating policy or codes of conduct they...

8. New grad having nightmares about work!!!!!!!!!

   sarahmizzou replied to Queen2u's topic in Ob/Gyn

   That feeling sucks. It is hard to feel rested and refreshed for the next day when your sleeping habits are all jacked up. I know this sounds silly but if you are in a position to do so ..... HAVE SEX! Sex releases all kinds of endorphins and chemical...

9. academic dishonesty issue

   sarahmizzou replied to jxoxo's topic in General Students

   Some people on here like to get up on their high horse with all that moral integrity BS. I think you have a couple of options. You can appeal it and fight for it. It depends on the wording of the assignment. If the assignment was to write about the a...

10. Feeling like a super failure

    sarahmizzou replied to Kringe38's topic in General Students

    Mistakes happen to the best of us. Just don't get all bent out of shape on your first try. Think about it analytically. What is the problem? You were unprepared, nervous, confused? Try and pinpoint it, study more and ask for more help. Even if they s...

    Good luck! You will do great and if ever in doubt always ask for a second or even third opinion!

    You guys are lucky! We have to wear red scrubs. Somewhere between crimson and blood red with black scrub pants and either all white or all black shoes. We have a white lab coat too. It looks like Betty Boup through up all over us lol. Polos would be ...

13. Accepted... should I get books and read ahead?

    sarahmizzou replied to sarahmizzou's topic in General Students

    Thanks guys so much for the replies! Currently I am a stay at home mom so I have extra time to read. I was thinking maybe brushing up on the pre-reqs because I hear the instructors expect you to just know the stuff. I have always been a "take the bul...

14. Accepted... should I get books and read ahead?

    sarahmizzou posted a topic in General Students

    So, my ADN program starts in January and I was wondering if it would behoove me to get a few books and read ahead? I was thinking brushing up on my pre-reqs might not be a bad idea.... like Human Lifespan, micro and A&P. My only concern is that I...

15. Loans for living expenses?!

    sarahmizzou replied to rockexrolloh's topic in General Students

    I think they may be a little harsh. I think figuring out how you are going to live and pay for school are legitimate concerns. If your current job doesn't work around your schedule it may be hard to find another job with insurance and the same pay es...
