Hi everyone I just joined this site, I guess I miss nursing and working and being a nurse. I had to stop working several months ago because I became extremely ill with gluten enteropathy, malabsorption and malnutrition. I never fully recovered though I stopped eating gluten right away. It will be almost two years gluten free. Doctors couldn't figure out my case and I'm still very ill.

Just recently I began developing wounds everywhere. My blood sugars are normal. But neuro symptoms and fevers, high wbc and a whole list of other symptoms. The lesions on my endoscopy look exactly like the ones on my head, and in my head there are nodules. So it's been frustrating. And I've been very depressed. I am so tired of being unwell and I miss working and being productive.

I have a wealth of knowledge though on holistic and home remedies that are helping me. I was thinking of starting a health blog. Another nurse however told me this is not a good idea at all unless I do not mention that I am a nurse. Does anyone have any knowledge on nurses blogging? I would disclaimer that it's not medical advice, and that my info is merely from personal experiences, etc.

anyway thank you for reading. Have a good day everyone
