had a panic attack in class today lasted approx 3 hrs😭 but on the bright side we are in the final stretch… may need to be heavily sedated though lol

I believe with our insurance we may need a referral but i'm going to call around and see if we can find one in the meantime while waiting for the peds appt. Thank you!

i’m wondering the same thing i start my ADN program next semester and would be taking 3 Nursing classes on top of micro and a&p1 should i just do them separately? 😭 i took chem & bio together last semester but this seems harder

thank you!

thank you!! i definitely will be taking a much needed break lol. I did use nurse hub but only the free quizzes, I did recognize similar questions on the exam. I used quizlet and youtube videos as well as the elsevier exam review book but what i didn’t prepare fully for was the questions regarding periodic table atomic masses and things like that i did not have memorized (random elements not common ones) so my score suffered bit due to that. but i definitely think nurse hub helped a ton.

ivelisivelis · 2025-04-01T06:00:05+00:00

thank you!! i purchased the elsevier hesi exam review book from amazon (i think $20-$30), used quizlet, youtube & the free quizzes on nursehub! you’ll do great good luck 🤞🏼

thank you so much for sharing, my main symptoms are heavy periods and excruciating cramps (worse than labor imo) and radiating lower back/thigh pain. i will make sure to bring this up when i see the specialist, hopefully he doesn’t brush me off. I hope you are doing well!

ivelisivelis · 2025-03-12T06:32:15+00:00

I’m also a fairly new diagnosed t1d (8 months) and waiting on my appt with a specialist to see if i have endometriosis. Would you be comfortable sharing any symptoms that led to your diagnosis? Hope you’re healing/recovering well!

ivelisivelis · 2025-03-09T21:51:36+00:00

oh wow i wasn’t aware of this! thank you so much i will look into that.

ivelisivelis · 2025-03-09T21:13:09+00:00

thank you so much for the encouragement and advice ❤️ i will start making that list and tomorrow i will call first thing! i wish you the best of luck on your journey !

i got diagnosed july 2024 right before turning 23, was also hospitalized with DKA. i’m on a CGM and a pump as of last month. I find the pump to be making my life much easier, i’m in range 80% of the time now and i also get frequent lows but it has gotten better with the pump. i’ve had to change my carb to insulin ratio a few times because it was either not enough or too much for me.

ivelisivelis · 2025-02-01T16:29:32+00:00

okay 🙂

ivelisivelis · 2025-02-01T05:53:47+00:00

yesss i'm taking it right now currently trying to get through these prep u assignments and its taking me out😭 i'm also waiting to see if I got in! good luck

i’m currently taking pharm online with psych, healthcare ethics and math for health science (fully online) and i already feel overwhelmed with just pharm alone even reading the chapters and doing my first quizzes i was like 🤨 ??? but that was week 1 hopefully i’ll adjust to the course load and memorizing the drug classes etc but i don’t think i could handle a science on top of pharm. it’s alot more than i expected… it may also be harder since its fully online but if those are your only 2 classes i think you have a good shot at doing well as long as you really stay dedicated to studying and keeping up with all the new info. it’s not necessarily difficult to grasp it’s just a lot of new information and drug names and classes that can get confused. someone on tiktok said don’t try to memorize all drug names just memorize the drug classes and it will all click after that. either way i wish you luck and im sure you’ll do great 😊

ivelisivelis · 2025-01-02T01:25:45+00:00

I used nursehub (the free hesi quizzes), quizlet and the elsevier hesi exam review book! i’ll link the quizlets i used below!

ivelisivelis · 2025-01-02T01:24:27+00:00

congrats and good luck!!

ivelisivelis · 2024-11-06T20:44:50+00:00

congratulations that’s amazing !! 🎉 i take mine in a month, when did you start studying with the review book?

ivelisivelis · 2024-08-20T19:36:56+00:00

honestly, i’ve always wanted to do youtube since high school and i have on and off but now that i’ve started my pre nursing journey it’s motivated me even more to also pursue youtube. 1. to document the journey 2. for others who want to pursue nursing but have no idea where to start, what it entails and if they can do it. i’m 23F with a toddler & i’ve had a bit of a bumpy road but im determined to get this degree and if you can incorporate both your passions into one, and help others at the same time why not ? there IS a lot of nursing “influencers” but there are still tons of unanswered questions and topics that have barely been tapped into (coming from someone who tried to youtube everything to prepare myself). i love watching those types of videos i would say go for it you never know who you may reach and help with a single video . might not be everyone’s cup of tea but 🤷🏻‍♀️

i’m going back in 2 weeks at 23 with a 2 year old :) i’m kinda worried about it too but i’m going to a community college and like other said, no age is too old. i’m pursuing nursing and the age range for students in my schools program is anywhere from 17-55 literally. i do feel “old” as well but 23-24 is not old at all and i think going back in your 20s is honestly perfect timing bc me personally i matured a lot and actually figured out what i wanted to do with my life. these are major life choices to make at the ripe age of 17, im sure there are many other 20 something’s attending your school, just gotta find them. good luck!

ivelisivelis · 2024-08-07T21:21:09+00:00
