Yes, I know you too! Did you ever get a successful bp reading today? I feel like an idiot that I can't even find the brachial artery. I have tried it on three people already today and I just don't get it.

Sorry I didn't meet anyone at orientation. I sat with the 5 people from my Micro class that got in. Anyway...I picked #68 in the lottery which sucked, but I managed to get a decent schedule and clinicals at Baptist. I'm in section 6. Anyone else?...

NJFek, thanks for the advice and encouragement! I am so excited to be going to orientation on Thurs. In fact, I'm just so darn excited to be in the program, PERIOD! My life long dream is finally becoming a reality. Wish my mom was still around to...

My stethoscope isn't engraved either. I wouldn't mind getting my name engraved on it. Makes it less desirable to "walk away", if you know what I mean. My uniforms are due to arrive today. Still need to buy some khaki pants. I don't know about ev...

Got all my paperwork turned in this morning except for the ppd results. I'll be going back on Thursday to get that read. It felt good to have the paperwork turned in. Can't wait to meet everyone at orientation. Lynn

I got a call from Crystal Porter this afternoon about the physical and ppd. She said that Dr. Henning said that as long as the physical and ppd are dated AFTER THE PACKETS WENT OUT at the end of March, you're good to go. I got mine done on April 2n...

Ughh...this sucks. I really don't want to pay for another physical. But if I have to, I have to. Does that include the titers too? I'd really hate to have to do that again. I can't afford to pay for everything again.

Ughh...okay, so I went to the Northside Medical Clinic today for my drug test and decided to just go ahead and have my physical done while I was there. Then I come home and read the posts and now I'm thinking I just messed up and will have to have t...
