This is a nurse here!!

I care for longterm ventilator patients in the home care setting.

Previously I worked with preemie babies--mostly at the point when

they are almost ready to go home--training and preparing parents on

CPR, special equipment, and preemie care.

I don't know what a JD is?

As to the number of nurses, I think you're right.

But, as to JDs, I think it is your imagination, but don't feel bad.

I think you're suffering from a recently identified neurological

disorder called DSWS, (Duodenal Switch Waiting Syndrome). DSWS is

characterized by nervousness, impatience, and paranoia that one is

being hounded by lawyers waiving fee agreements and hissing, " Trust

me, I'm an attorney. "

Don't worry, it usually resolves itself during surgery.

> Tom--

I definately have DSWS, and it has intensified since my surgery was

postponed from 9/5 to 10/3. However, since I live in NYC, the paranoia

etc, are a normal part of the lifestyle. I do have this insane urge

to run after MDs yelling " Hey do you do WLS and when can you operate

on me? " As for JDs, being one myself, I generally tell them to take it

on contingency or buzz off!

RNC, JD and suffering from DSWS--at least until 10/3!

Hi Pammi....Not a RN here, but a medical social worker. We have something in

common, for I work in a large NICU (50 beds).
