Tales of a Big City Hospital Nurse

My life as a wife, mother, and nurse.

Apparently, I am.....

Normal. They found nothing in my head that should not be there. The MRI couldn't even find traces of the tumor that was there 10 years ago. So why would my hormones be elevated? Ah... more questions. More doctors, more tests. No transphenoidal surgery! Yay!

My biggest fear with having the brain MRI was that they would find something somewhere other than my pituitary. I may now exhale. Wooooshhhhh!!!!

Other exciting news...I got to assist in triage this weekend at clinicals. It was our first day back, and we had no patients assigned. So, our instructor had us working down in the ED. Some went to the cardiac side, others to the general side, and a few in Fast Track (in & out). I did the vital signs, fetched patients, ran the forms to the various places. The last patient before we left, I actually did the interview. Good learning experience.

Also, for more learning experience, I am going to be working the first aid stations at the Miami Hurricanes games. When there are not inebriated college football fans coming in, I can use the time for studying.

Oh, and I am now officially a Soccer Mom. My son is starting soccer on Monday. His karate school was badly damaged in the hurricane, and closed. We signed him up, and got his equipment on Friday. He is so excited. I really hope he enjoys it.

Only 8 days til my first pharm test.......yikes.
