  1. Longest you’ve gone without having to give pee?

    stickybun posted a topic in Nurses Recovery

    I've tested once since my contract went into effect and it's been three weeks since I've had to screen. This can't be

  2. Meetings

    stickybun replied to SpankedInPittsburgh's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Probably could log and leave. I thought about that as well and then wondered if there was some kind of way they could track how long you were actually

  3. Meetings

    stickybun replied to SpankedInPittsburgh's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I'm required to attend two a week in addition to my nurse support group, after care and therapy. That's five obligations/meetings a week. We use affinity/spectrum and have to log in at the meeting....

  4. GI lab?

    stickybun posted a topic in Nurses Recovery

    I don't have any experience or know any nurses who have worked in a GI lab. Is this an area a nurse with narcotic restrictions could work

    stickybun replied to stickybun's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Thanks! I've got 6 months, too. I applied to a GI lab job

    Are there any safe weight loss supplements for those of us being monitored out there? I feel like I just need a

  7. Weight loss supplements

    stickybun replied to stickybun's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Flexiril and zofran aren't allowed in my state unless an addictionologist sees you and okays

  8. Weight loss supplements

    stickybun replied to stickybun's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Absolutely! I have a perianal abscess. Right now. Mofo HURTS. I've been trying to manage it myself here at home. Lancing, sitz baths, and a round of oral antibiotics that I was put on for an inguinal...

  9. Weight loss supplements

    stickybun replied to stickybun's topic in Nurses Recovery

    My gynecologist has me on birth control pills to manage my adenomyosis. I had to have that med verified. Ridiculous to have to do so for hormonal meds. I also do not have a dentist. I've been blessed...

  10. Weight loss supplements

    stickybun replied to stickybun's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Bah. I only need to lose 5-10 pounds. I'll just keep to calorie

  11. TNPAP

    stickybun replied to TamiRoberts's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I'm a TNPAP participant. What I'm going to tell you will save you a lot of stress, time, and money. Don't do the evaluation. Go ahead and admit yourself inpatient to an approved rehab facility. An...

  12. Likelihood of vinaigrette causing false positive?

    stickybun posted a topic in Nurses Recovery

    My monitoring agreement was just activated yesterday. I've read through the handbook and am well aware of what foods to avoid to prevent a false positive. Last night was my first weekly nurse support...

  13. is it hard to get a job after two years off of nursing?

    stickybun replied to catsmeow1972's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Curious...do the programs you guys are/were in not require you to work in the field of nursing for a predetermined number of consecutive months before they will let you out of your monitoring...

  14. Managing screens and work

    stickybun posted a topic in Nurses Recovery

    Just curious how you all manage to get your drug screens complete while working. I should be signing my monitoring agreement this week and was looking ahead to whenever I am finally working again....

  15. What to say?

    stickybun replied to RN0599's topic in Nurses Recovery

    If you feel that way just tell them you had a personal matter. Personally I feel like it doesn't do people any good to keep quiet on these issues but I respect people's wishes to remain private. It is...

  16. Managing screens and work

    stickybun replied to stickybun's topic in Nurses Recovery

    For some crazy reason I had it in my head that we weren't allowed to work nights but I looked back at the agreement and it isn't listed as a no-no. So that could be the answer for

  17. Managing screens and work

    stickybun replied to stickybun's topic in Nurses Recovery

    That was my thought. The only experience in nursing I have is working in a hospital. No way would that fly where I have previously

  18. Managing screens and work

    stickybun replied to stickybun's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I'm guessing to start your day and check in asap. Still, if you can't even donate until 7:30 or 8 and the lab closes at say 5p, how do you get there to provide a sample if you're working that

  19. Help! What's next?

    stickybun replied to Justme0400's topic in Nurses Recovery

    A hair follicle test along with a IDS will help. Do it. I'm about to sign a contract with

  21. school while being monitored

    stickybun posted a topic in Nurses Recovery

    Looking at my options regarding school for when I get back from my rehab facility. Any of you do school while monitored? I'm interested in psych NP but know I'll be required to let the school know I'm...

  22. school while being monitored

    stickybun replied to stickybun's topic in Nurses Recovery

    It's my understanding that I will not be reported to the board of nursing. I will have restrictions on passing narcotics and where I can work for the next three years. I'm not looking at even applying...

  23. school while being monitored

    stickybun replied to stickybun's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I'm not supposed to have a mark on my license. My monitoring program does require I inform any university of my being monitored. The school I'm looking at is conservative/Christian. I have a great...

  24. About to start recovery process, some questions

    stickybun posted a topic in Nurses Recovery

    Made a new account for this forum even though I don't post much under my other one. Some questions. I had a UDS and it's going to be postitive. I do have a problem. I do want help. I'm going to self...
