I am not working with a rehab councelor (sp) right now...I am not even sure what that is. But I do have medical coverage through the VA, cuz I am considered 80% disabeled.

So I posted this another section and have not got much feed back, figured I would try my luck here. Ok so here is a little background. I am 21 years old, medicaly retired from the Air Force, and I have wanted to go into nursing my whole life. Well, when I got sick while in the military that dream seems impossible to grab. I suffer from really bad chronic pain, migraines, passing out, seizures, right side of my body tingeling and numbness, and my head twitches (kind of like tourets) but thats not what I have. I see several doctors and none can really figure out whats going on. I no longer have my drivers licence due to the twitching, passing out and seizures. I am on a handful of medications, but none of them really make me sleepy or keep me from functioning. Anyways, half of my family does not think I could make it through nursing school, let alone make it out in the career field. The other part says the same old thing, you can do anything you can put your mind to, blah blah blah. But I am not even sure if I could make it through nursing school at this point. I mean what if I was learing how to do an IV or something, and I twitch and poke someone in the wrong spot. Or am in the middle of dealing with a patient and pass out or have a seizure. I just dont know....honest opinions would be greatly appreciated....from what I have explained, does it seem do able? :/

My stamina tends to vary from day to day it seems...I mean I have my good days and my bad ones. I need to ask my doctors about going back to work in general (I have been out for almost a year, when I get retired from the military). And I push my docs so hard to try and figure out exactly what is going on, but because there has not been a positive blood test or anything for sure seen on any mri or anything, its all in my head. Because you know I can give myself seizures, but thats besides the point, lol. I mean I am a very motivated person and part of me thinks that alone could get me through, but I know that is nieve. I dunno, its something I want so badly and I am afraid that if I do not try I will regret it. My husband thinks if I try it will prove to be to hard and then I will regret that....I just dont know.
