  1. I got reported to HR

    CrunchBerries replied to katie92's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    You clearly have not read the thread, I don't believe I will take the time to explain

  2. I got reported to HR

    CrunchBerries replied to katie92's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    The person who changed her words to something she never said and then implied she was something she's not is race baiting. Lowering one's self to such a lowly level is nothing to be

  3. I got reported to HR

    CrunchBerries replied to katie92's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    ///Sigh/// No, she did not say that. Someone changed her words and claimed that is what she said, that is not what she wrote. Please read HER post for what SHE

    CrunchBerries replied to CrunchBerries's topic in General Nursing

    My S/O is a truck driver. ETA: my ex is a psychiatrist, my current is a truck driver. He's not a do-it-yourself, orrrrrrrrrrrrrr, he shouldn't

  6. Shocked and Floored-Chronic Pain Mgmt

    CrunchBerries posted a topic in General Nursing

    I received quite an education this week. I have been a nurse for many years but for the first time I am on the patient end of pain management for MS. I find myself still slowly shaking my head over...

  7. Shocked and Floored-Chronic Pain Mgmt

    CrunchBerries replied to CrunchBerries's topic in General Nursing

    I know, it's insanity at it's best. I'm about to request it be closed or deleted completely. I write the sky is blue today and I'm told I am judgemental because sometimes the sky is orange with blue...

  8. Shocked and Floored-Chronic Pain Mgmt

    CrunchBerries replied to CrunchBerries's topic in General Nursing

    No, that is not correct. I do not sound unhinged. I have explained and clarified that narcotics are not for me and I even shared very personal reasons for that. After clarifying I explained in...

  9. The Wisdom of Lurking

    CrunchBerries replied to Ruby Vee's topic in General Nursing

    There clearly are cliques here, not just one but more. These people have good advice when you get beyond the childishness. It really comes down to if you are okay wading through the nonsense to get...

  10. Shocked and Floored-Chronic Pain Mgmt

    CrunchBerries replied to CrunchBerries's topic in General Nursing

    Just as your post where you made wild accusations and assumed I would perceive a situation as you would (projection) it as not the least bit thoughtful. But I can certainly see why you defend her....

  11. Shocked and Floored-Chronic Pain Mgmt

    CrunchBerries replied to CrunchBerries's topic in General Nursing

    Your post is ridiculous, your assumptions about me appear to be projection more than anything. Make no mistake, you are not educating anyone, you are making wild assumptions, projecting your own...

  12. Wrongful Termination?

    CrunchBerries replied to MEANNRS's topic in General Nursing

    Getting a lawyer can be very expensive but many will offer free consults. What if you find one of the many nurses/doctors that went back to college to become a lawyer and call to ask if you have a...

  13. Wrongful Termination?

    CrunchBerries replied to MEANNRS's topic in General Nursing

    My sister used to work for Unemployment. She said most times people will win their case even if they really were in the wrong and it's all financial. Unemployment is cheaper for the state than...

  14. Shocked and Floored-Chronic Pain Mgmt

    CrunchBerries replied to CrunchBerries's topic in General Nursing

    You know what? When I wrote that this experience has been educational for me I really meant that. For you it is your floor patients, for me it is my sister. My sister (I think? I assume?) has legit...

  15. Wrongful Termination?

    CrunchBerries replied to MEANNRS's topic in General Nursing

    I used to work for Mayo Clinic and in those days (not sure about today) we couldn't be fired for a med error, no discipline at all. I think the point was so that if we caught it later nobody would...

  16. Shocked and Floored-Chronic Pain Mgmt

    CrunchBerries replied to CrunchBerries's topic in General Nursing

    Many years ago I worked for this outstanding (yet mean) neurologist. He did take the time to teach me a great deal. Elavil is another good one for nerve pain and the way he used to dose them was to...

    CrunchBerries replied to CrunchBerries's topic in General Nursing

    I PMed someone asking if there is a block feature on this software but even if there isn't, I'm just going to ignore such posts in the future and not even respond. I agree, this topic has made me...

  18. Shocked and Floored-Chronic Pain Mgmt

    CrunchBerries replied to CrunchBerries's topic in General Nursing

    Are you fogging serious? i never implied that narcotics are not for others. I happen to have a very addictive personality, I was raised by an alcoholic and the other was an alcoholic addict. In...

  19. Shocked and Floored-Chronic Pain Mgmt

    CrunchBerries replied to CrunchBerries's topic in General Nursing

    He's the only pain mgmt guy within 2 hours. I waited quite some time for the appt, I wanted to ride it out. I got what I wanted out of the appt, I knew there was nothing they could make me do that I...

  20. Shocked and Floored-Chronic Pain Mgmt

    CrunchBerries replied to CrunchBerries's topic in General Nursing

    Since my ins is new I can't use my usual neuro. The ONLY neurologist on my ins plan is not someone I want to work with, I'm waiting for an appt with another guy in San Diego (about 2 hours away). I...

    CrunchBerries replied to CrunchBerries's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think it has anything to do with being a border town. My insurance is in the US but I live in Mexico. The US is 10 minutes away from me. I believe I was probably the only person there that...

  22. Any NP works for a Weight Loss Clinic?

    CrunchBerries replied to CocoaLoverFNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    One of the problems with the morbidly obese are the differences between that population and the normal BMI folks. The electrical activity in the brain is different, the gut bacteria is different, and...

  23. Shocked and Floored-Chronic Pain Mgmt

    CrunchBerries replied to CrunchBerries's topic in General Nursing

    No, I wasn't referring to the patients discussing anything it was the staff. Examples.. everyone has to do a drug screen at each and every visit. They hand you a cup with your name written on the...

  24. Shocked and Floored-Chronic Pain Mgmt

    CrunchBerries replied to CrunchBerries's topic in General Nursing

    No, I really don't want to go to anymore pain management clinics if I can avoid it. My employer (I'm sure) would be willing to oversee my titrating Pamelor. If that doesn't work I may have no choice...

  25. Any NP works for a Weight Loss Clinic?

    CrunchBerries replied to CocoaLoverFNP's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I love working with bariatric patients. It's very rewarding. A typical patient may or may not wear makeup, they dress kind of frumpy, low self esteem shows through clearly. Then they have surgery...
