On the verge of a Nervous Breakdown!! Help!!

Published

okay, i don't know whether i should slit my wrists now or wait until i'ts official!! i took the nclex yesterday(less than 12 hours after recieving my att via email) :angryfire , it shut off at 75 and i thought i would die. i wanted to shake it and yell "please come on mr computer, i promise to do better!" the questions were a mixture of easy and hard. toward the end their difficulty became a little vauge, but i am still not really understanding what the test rates as hard or easy. can somenoe help with that? :o

i had 3 hepatitis in a row(toward the end), ie,

pt. teaching with hepa,

1 condoms with her hubby

2. have another family member cook

3. take tylenol for pain

4. decrease consumption of fat soluable vitamins

then it went staight into which pt. is at risk for developing hepd,

1. living with a person with hep a

2. tylenol use

3. having hep b

4. visiting a unsanitary country

then it went into "which is the correct room assingnment for the following pt."

1 hep c private room with contact isolation

2 bact. endocarditis private room with neg pressure

3 pt w/pud and a pt w/ c diff-semiprivate room

4 i think it was a pt. with hep a and a pt with ulerative collitis in semiprivate

those hepatitis question threw me off. here are my rational:

hep a needs someone else to cook!!

hep c in the private room because he would most likely be treated with interferon, which lowers your wbc count, the contact isolation would be because of the mode of excretion of the interferon. (maybe i am wrong)

and i wouldn't put a pt. with cdiff in the same room as a pud because of the potential for contamination from the c diff to the pud pt who already has a comprimised gi tract.

and the hep d is associated with hepb ( i didn't know that til i got home), i put the one about the other country.(i don't know)

i know that the wait is killing me i have already taken 2 nerve pills and i am working on the 3rd!if anyone could help or just lend some encouraging words it would be great.oh, and my last question was priority of care in a peds icu (dont know if i got it right though)

oh, and would a pt with a av graft for dialysis be a contraindication for mri?thanks alot-tara

pray that god grants me peace!!!!!!!!! :uhoh21:

What do you mean for the third time? I just posted today! All I am doing is venting my anxiety, like everyone else has on this BB!

ucandoit, it's okay to feel scared and worry, we have all done it. Whatever the outcome, you know you did your best and that was all you could do. MOST of the time, it is a good sign when the computer shuts off at 75. Keep your hopes up, things will work out. Let us know how you do. Best wishes.

And your prayer is there...Glory to GOD!!! The bible says not to be anxious for nothing, but to give all supplication unto the LORD!! I know it is easier said than done, just suggesting to do something else to ease your mind, instead of keep putting it out there like that, don't allow "Satan" any room for doubt when God has already fulfilled His promises. Believe you have received when you pray.

all nurses who take the exam will get 50% correct and 50% wrong, doesn't matter what their level of education is, even phd. the odds are in your favor, more pass that shut off at 75, then fail.

go take a day for yourself and sit tight...................there is nothing that you can do until you get your results.
