   Jenzee replied to ngillilan1's topic in General Nursing

   Ellean, I am going to attempt to answer your post as nicely as possible seeing as I find it highly offensive. I'm not constantly pregnant....I became pregnant ONCE while in nursing school. I am still an good student and am actually even a student rep...

   Jenzee replied to ngillilan1's topic in General Nursing

   It is soooo do-able!! I am in my last semester of nursing school. Right smack dab in the middle I got pregnant with my 5th child. All of my children are young as well 9, 6, 5, 3 and now 1. My husband is VERY traditional so I have kept up with all of...

4. Fibromyalgia

   Jenzee replied to veetach's topic in Emergency

   I'm not sure I get what you are saying here, you do not believe in ADD/ADHD/ODD? Ever know someone personally that has been DX with any of those? I use to work with children with ADD/ADHD trust me they are real.

5. Fibromyalgia

   Jenzee replied to veetach's topic in Emergency

   Even after reading all of these emails from people who suffer from "fibro", or know someone who suffers from it, you can still claim that they are hypochondriacs? That's a little insensitive, in my humble opinion. There are many illnesses that we now...

6. Say What??????!!!!!!!!!!

   Jenzee replied to gt4everpn's topic in Relations

   Ok this was not from a patient but a question from my sister.... "Jen, if I drink too much water will I drown my baby?" We were both pregnant at the time and I nearly peed my pants from laughing so hard.

8. Male Nurses Gay!

   Jenzee replied to tigress_8207's topic in Male Students

   Sorry darlin'... but Huh? No, men choosing nursing as a profession is not going to "turn them gay". Occupations (I'm gonna say minus those in the sex industry) do not have anything to do with one's sexual orientation. NO occupation is going to chang...

   not medical advice just friendly advice....ask your ob to do a blood test to check for pregnancy. if you are not pregnant might want to have your ob/gyn get to the bottom of why you haven't had your period.

    Jenzee replied to nessa1980's topic in General Nursing

    I got mine from the American Red Cross. You can call your local chapter and ask about CPR for health care professionals or for professional rescuers (I can't remember exactly what they called it). Tell them that you are entering nursing school and th...

12. Fibromyalgia

    Jenzee replied to veetach's topic in Emergency

    Thank you so much for that post!!!!!! LOL! I had to laugh about the SVT I just had a heart ablation to try and correct mine. It is kinda hard to fake it when you are wearing an even monitor that catches it.

    Jenzee replied to blissfulee's topic in Pre-Nursing

    It's been a little tough. I have 4 kids...7, 4, 3, and 19 months. I just finished up my first semester of nursing school. I managed to do really well in school, keep up with my house work and spend time with the kids but ended up really sick in the p...

15. Would you call in because you didn't get any sleep?

    Jenzee replied to Elvish's topic in General Nursing

    Me too. If I don't get enough sleep (at least 5 or 6 hrs) I end up picking up every virus that passes me. Plus, when I am done with school, I would just not comfortable having the lives of others in my hands with a foggy brain. I've gotta say though...
