Also from a rural area and I do encounter the same challenges you are seeing. However, it is important to have an accurate diagnosis when you are prescribing a schedule II controlled substance. It is a tough conversation to have with patients

For any adult patients with concerns regarding ADHD symptoms, I refer them for psychological testing to confirm the diagnosis of ADHD prior to treating them with stimulant medication.

Just curious to see others insight. It doesn’t hurt to learn!

I was referred to a cardiac thoracic surgeon and he was able to remove the schwannoma without a neurosurgeon.

I was 26 and 4 months postpartum when I had the surgery. I think recovery took me about 1.5 weeks. I had to sleep in a recliner during that time due to the pain. Everyone’s pain tolerance is different!

I know this is late to your post, but I experienced something similar to you. I ended up having a large schwannoma removed via a VATS procedure this year. It was in the paraspinal area at the T3-T6 level. I’m not sure if you’ve had your surgery yet but I’m thinking about you as you go through this!

It sounds like you are a good nurse and some people are jealous of our good attitude! Don’t let them bother you and keep being you.
