caroladybelle, your employer was aware of it as well? I really appreciate your response, thank you for piping in. haha no, no duck walk :)

Yeah, you're right. Now i'm heavily regretting my decision.

i'm hoping that your gut is right! i figured that being honest was the way to go. I guess i'll just have to wait and see.

Hello Everyone! I've been reading these forums for some time now. I'm a new grad LVN and have finally been offered a job after months of searching. I completed all my paperwork today, and was sent to get my pre-employment physical exam. I know I have nothing to worry about with my drug testing. But during the physical exam, the physician asked me if I had anything regarding my health that I wanted to disclose. I told him that I have a mild case of scoliosis but that it doesn't hinder me from performing any job functions. He asked me how long i've known for, and scribbled something down on my physical exam sheet. He then had me lift my arms in whichever way he did, and bend over as far as I could (i'm almost able to touch my toes). I wasn't afraid to let him know of my condition because I don't have any pain or discomfort. But now i'm afraid that my employer will rescind their offer for fear that i'll have back pain or something while lifting. And I regret telling him, especially because he had no intentions of checking my spine or anything. Would this be a valid reason for my employer to nix my offer?
