Hello eveyone. I am in nursing school and although struggling, feel like I could enjoy nursing. My main problem is I have some gastric disorder where sometimes walking or standing up brings intense pain. I don't know if it is chrome's disease, acid r...

Sorry I just have to let some of this out. I am so stressed out right now. I have foundations final Thursday, A health Assessment Exam Friday, which I have about a 69 avg in the class. Foundations I should pass, but not by much. Health Assessment I p...

congratulations!!!!!

Thanks everyone for your help again. Nurs2b thanks for your concern, but I am not going to start taking anti-depressants just because of school. I've had severe depression since I can really remember now. Not saying I will take them anyways, but I am...

Just wanted to say thanks for all of your help. It's nice to know that I am not the only one is stressed. Thanks to my classmates and help from people like you, I haven't dropped out yet. that is yet though. Thanks for the information on the anti-dep...

Coming from a male nursing student, I'm glad to see that their are a lot of women out their interested in more than money. I think I might put off dating till I turn 30. Clint

Which school are you going to scrappy?

The pay may be better here in TX. New grads usually start out at about 20 an hour and go up from there. A friend of mine has only a year in experience and just got a job making $22 an hour with benefits and a $5,000 dollar sign on bonus

I'm going to San Jac's nursing school this semester, sorry this took so long, since application deadline this week. Nursing program is known for being top in pass/fail percentage on N-clex, but everyone says it's 2 years of hell too!!!

Pretty funny Betts

I think baths scare me more than anything. I am a guy so if I bathe a woman I can already here law suit, and if bathe a guy he starts to get hard, I think I would have to run screaming. I'm not a big fan of puke either, but I believe I can at least h...

A girl who says that? After my own heart Heather!!! lol

That's what I was wondering, from the postings it seems like Houston is the size of a small town

You can't eat and watch tv while having sex?

Just wanted to say Hi Sandy, and welcome to the boards

Glad to hear y'all are having a lot of fun. I starting nursing next semester, and I am really looking forward to the clinicals. I want to work in the ER, but any time out of a class room is good to me.

Hey Jen, just wanted to add that Nursing might eventually help with student loans, since I know at least here in TX that RN's usually make more than teachers. Just another thing to think about.

I have to agree with the others, I mean if they can't get help what is the point of them being there?

So far a lot of the best marriages I have seen are where the husband and wife are both nurses. I was just wondering if anybody else had noticed that. It seems reasonable to me, since a lot of people tell me that it's hard for people in the medical fi...

Im not a nurse yet, but I live in the Houston area. Houston propably isn't the best place to live, but unlike some other responses I think you might benefit from visiting it. There are a lot of entertainment and attractions down here. Parts of Downto...

I am a male nursing student, and I am really glad to see that most nurses aren't prejudiced towards males entering the profession. I think how good a nurse you are depends on your character, and their will be good and bad nurses of both genders.

I am only a student, but I look forward to working 12 hour shifts and getting 4 days off a week!!! To me that sounds like the perfect schedule, although their are exceptions, because it sounds like Wolfox's schedule kind of stinks. I think if at all ...

I vote for the ER, I like the excitement, and that is the main area I have interest in. After that I might like home health, because of the independence and it's not a choice, but travel nursing sounds like a lot of fun

Most programs for PA or NP are both Master's degree programs now. The main difference between them is you have to have a bsn, to become a nurse practioner, and a PA, you just need to have a bachelors degree. The Nurse Practioners are trained more lik...
