Hi All, I am in a FNP masters program in Canada and currently studying for upcoming OSCE on Advanced health assessment and Diagnosis. We have a list comprised of abdominal pain, chest pain, red eye, rash, low back pain, knee pain, earache, headache, etc... May be somebody can give me an idea of what to expect and what are the conditions that most commonly presented? Any ideas? Thanks, Ninet

I have a question to occhealth nurses who have encountered this problem: I am a RN in L&D and I have a glomus tumor on my finger (non dominant hand). I had it 5 years ago and it was removed surgically and everything was fine after that. The only problem is that it is very painful and very sensitive to cold - if I touch any cold object - I can barely hold myself from screaming. I probably will have to go on modified work until my next surgery - the only problem is that it will take a few months at least to do it. I will be seeing occhealth doctor soon and my question is: what kind of job he can offer to me? Any ideas? I'd appreciate your responces.
