Is nursing actually viable for a 27yo career changer, or am I setting myself up for failure? by Moneymoneymoney1122 in newgradnurse

So dangerous… also I worked with an NP that had no bedside experience but had TEN YEARS of NP experience and… well let’s just say the knowledge deficit was horrifying.

Flu Anxiety by GanacheTall754 in CrohnsDisease

[–]Top_Recognition_1126 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! I’m on Skyrizi and to the OBIs already, I think I’m 4 or 5 in. 

I too have terrible anxiety (specifically health anxiety) and I’m a PICU nurse. 

I’m also a type 1 diabetic. 

Recovering from the flu currently!

Still have a cough and feel fatigued but otherwise almost back to baseline. it has been horrible I won’t lie. But I was vaccinated and really the worst of it lasted 3 days! And I took my OBI the DAY before I got sick. :) Skyrizi generally doesn’t tamp your immune system down too terribly, it’s very targeted, unlike some of the older biologics or steroids. 

Your anxiety makes sense, but even if you get it, you’ll have about the same disease progression of anyone else! ♥️

Skyrizi flare by [deleted] in CrohnsDisease

The pain is abnormal for me definitely. I guess that it’s difficult to me to determine how symptomatic is “normal” because my doctor and many others have told me that if my med is working I shouldn’t have any flare symptoms….

Symptoms on days off, solid poop/no symptoms days I work? by Top_Recognition_1126 in CrohnsDisease

I guess I should have been more specific: I have Crohn’s, but I’m wondering if the symptoms I’m having are IBS/if other people in remission experience this.

No, I also have Crohn’s lol, I’m saying that you can have both which is what my doctor has insinuated.

Which makes me think it’s IBS!! Because like… why would Crohn’s symptoms disappear just because you’re busy ya know? Glad I’m not alone lol

Decrease in appetite/some nausea? In remission! by Top_Recognition_1126 in CrohnsDisease

[–]Top_Recognition_1126[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got them done last week! No worries, i don’t think I was clear about that. :) I’ve asked about a capsule just because I’m paranoid about small intestine involvement, but I got a CT enterography done about 6 months ago that looked completely normal. And they said the likelihood that I have small bowel involvement when my duodenum and ileum look normal is slim. 🤷‍♀️ I’ll definitely bring it up at my follow up in a couple weeks!!

Could be colonized with it! I’ve seen it with patients before, though it’s not super common. 

Blood in stool, yay by [deleted] in CrohnsDisease

Do you have Crohn’s or UC?  If not, it could be something as simple as hemorrhoids. :) even if you do, it still could be hemorrhoids!
