Avatar f tn The two that were in the bipolar forum one on whether a person is looking for employment and would accept a job as related to coping with issues from depression in the workplace and one on techniques for coping with stress (that might have been a question not a poll but it could be made into one) might work.
Avatar n tn It definitely sounds as though you were in a hostile work environment that caused you a great deal of stress and eventually caused you to have to seek a new position. The fact that your immediate supervisor was involved rather than trying to help you is also deplorable...and wrong. However, the burden of proof in a legal situation is on you. If the new job caused you to take a pay cut, then you certainly could seek damages for the loss of income, not to mention rank.
Avatar n tn stress and mental anguish does affect the baby. (i'm a stresser and my mom and df constantly yell at me for it) my mother is a nurses aid (also in nursing school....yay mom) so i do regard what she's says highly. it's never good to stress when pregnant......like mamaofone said....
Avatar m tn I’ve suffered with terrible anxiety and anxiety attacks my entire life. I’m a 31 year old male. I work in a very high stress environment. My Psych prescribes me klonopin for the anxiety. It seems as though the klonopin is slowing me down.(not a shocker) It’s never been the type of med I can go to sleep with... just calms me so I can participate in daily life activities. I got a negative year performance review for the first time ever.
Avatar f tn No, there is no medical condition that has been shown to effect seroconversion times. There are a few that have been theorized to do so, but stress isn't one of them. You should have moved on when Dr. Hook told you that your risk was minuscule at best. If despite that assurance and your review of the medical literature you still have "extreme stress", you need to consider personal counseling to deal with it.
Avatar n tn I will be going to the hospital on the advice of my doctor to get an MRI. A CT scan yesterday showed a cyst on my aorta 8mm in size.Can anyone give me more information about this condition? Thank you.
Avatar n tn In terms of nursing, a patient that comes in with blunt force injury to the head, especially when there is a loss of consciousness, must be presumed to be developing increased intracranial pressure. Besides the obvious signs such as a blown pupil, confusion and visual disturbances the nurse must be attentive to closely monitor the patients respirations and blood pressure, especially during the first hour. Make sure the pressures are taken from the same arm.
Avatar m tn I'm not a doctor but I think you're in Immune Reactive. Since your medical history was negative and now it's positive (correct me if i'm wrong). You need to check it out with your doctor. I don't think you need treatment, and hold out for as long as possible because 2018 sounds promising.

Avatar f tn As a nurse, the ONLY way you would EVER be at risk for HIV in the workplace is if you sustained a SEVERE injury with either a large bore needle (IM or IV, not a SQ) or another severe injury involving copious amounts of fresh blood (think a scalpel injury in the OR). Transmission of HIV in a health care workplace is VERY VERY rare. You will NEVER be at risk for HIV by doing your standard nursing duties taking care of HIV patients.
Avatar n tn Three days after your period ends? Depends on how long your period lasts...If you have a 7 day period and you have a question about it happening on cycle day 10 then it is somewhat likely but not super likely...cd10 would be a little early considering that most (not all) women ovulate around cd14-16 depending on their luteal phase...
Avatar m tn None whatsoever, 60% or more of people from all careers and professions have HSV1. i imagine that discriminating on the basis of HSV status in the workplace is universally unacceptable.
Avatar n tn 370) Conclusions: This critical review reveals that the existing medical literature does not provide precise estimates for complication rates following the therapeutic use of injected or systemic corticosteroids in the treatment of athletic injuries. Tendon and fascial ruptures are often reported complications of injected corticosteroids, whereas tibial stress fractures and multifocal osteonecrosis were described with systemic corticosteroids.
Avatar m tn My wife is having a serious episode of depression. She is 64 yrs old. She is currently in hospital and this is the second hospitalization in a month's time. They are recommending a nursing home for short term care. Their social worker claims that they will find possible facilities but have not responded to my calls when I ask for progress in the search. I have decided to do my own search to get her out of the hospital asap.

2206935 tn?1373638605 new 12,000 cervical cancer cases a year (mostly in women that have not had a pap in 5 years or more and in their late 40’s) and India has approx. 135,000 new cases. The US has approx. 4,000 deaths and India has approx. 75,000 deaths. Most women in India present to their Dr.’s or clinics in a late stage and thus the reason for the larger death rate. Bad medical advice is worse than no advice at all.
Avatar f tn I have had some crazy nipple soreness but other then that my supply has been hanging in there and my son still wants to nurse a lot. So far so good I guess.
Avatar f tn Thanks :) I don't know what the laws are on it, but I don't think my workplace would mind with that sort of thing. I still don't know if I'll get any sort of job satisfaction anymore and almost everything there is stressing me out too much. I think if my partner gets this position he's going for I'll end up leaving there. It's causing too much stress and the pregnancy has been so hard already.
Avatar m tn An important consideration in this regard is the recent finding that in a study of 695 vitrectomy cases, the risk of RRD was reduced from 4.9% to 1.1% (P = .04) by using small-gauge vitrectomy instrumentation.5 Thus, until pharmacologic vitreolysis is able to meet the demands of patients with floaters, minimally invasive, sutureless vitrectomy using small-gauge instruments without PVD induction seems to be an effective and safe approach.
1813627 tn?1337722375 To gauge the atmosphere, I would seek a few recent mothers in the workplace, find out if they have had positive pregnancy experiences while working for the company, and if they have been allowed things such as a place to pump at work, etc. That would tell me if the employer is supportive of new mothers.
Avatar f tn Thank you for taking the time to review my question; however, I'm still curious as to what specific "medical literature" suggests waiting longer than six (6) months.

Avatar f tn disorders, conversion, stress We are in need of finding a qualified doctor who can review our sons medical records and determine if there is something else going on besides NES/Conversion Disorder.
1945565 tn?1330465775 At any workplace in order to be able to be granted a reasonable accommodation that would help you be able to perform the "essential function" (basic requirements of the job) you need to discuss this when you are hired with whoever is your manager or supervisor. However its best not to discuss it until you are hired so that it wouldn't work against you (although of course its not allowed to be part of the decision).
177275 tn?1511755244 (in other fields often the authors put up pre-publication drafts for free or other writeups of the same work in a free version).
