Too many study aids??

Look at the Memory Book of Nursing.

It has great pictures for memorizing things, disease signs and symptoms, fluids & electrolytes, meds, etc.

There are different volumes.

Get an NCLEX review book like Saunders, there are good reviews at the beginnong of each chapter that makes for less reading.

Also, there is a little spiral book RN-Notes or something (spiral is on the top). Most things ate covered quickly in a little page or 2.

Of course, now I just told you about MORE study aids to buy :)

I second the Memory Book of Nursing! It's amazing and so many of the mnemonic illustrations are available on Pinterest. I use Pinterest for the infographics, too. There is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much out there that isn't just dry textbook reading.

Just a consideration - Nursing is going to be an eternal challenge for you considering the sheer volumes of information that must be read and understood to maintain your practice. How is this going to work?

I agree- adding more reading on top of the required reading when you read slowly is counterintuitive, IMO. I know I can barely keep up with the reading as is, and I'd have an impossible time adding anything else into the mix, regardless of how helpful it may be!

You have nothing to lose by trying. Have you looked at learningally.org? If you have a learning disability that is documented I think they would help you out. https://audiobooks.learningally.org/search.aspx?q=nursing&page=1&perpage=10&sortoption=Best%20Match&tab=abooks This might help you out with keeping up with your textbook reading.
