I can't keep up! The semester has been flying by, and now everything is due! Things that got set to the side, so I could study for midterms...
I have a paper due next Thursday that I haven't even started. I also have a group presentation due in two weeks, and a case study due monday. Add to that my readings for every class and studying for finals...which are only 2 weeks away...and you have a stressed-out Little Gretchy! Yipes! Someone take my blood pressure!
Speaking of that...lately it has been very high. High as in 170's/90's. NOT GOOD! 140/90 counts as hypertension! My pulse has only been in the 40's-50's, which is waaaay too low. Normal is above 60. I've been getting dizzy when I stand up, and getting short of breath. Time to make a trip to the doctor's office. Anybody know of a good internal medicine doctor? I have PPO, so I can go pretty much anywhere. I hope it's nothing serious, but maybe I'll be getting out of military sooner than I thought...medical discharge? :/ I hope not, I don't have the money to pay the government back for 3 years of Loyola's tuition!
Come March 4th....I am HOME FREE! Clinicals are over, spring break starts, and all I have left is my internship! Now, if only I can get over this major case of senioritis! :)
I wish! ^^^^Sorry I'm not writing alot tonight, I need to hit the hay. Sleep is precious, and the morning comes much too quickly!

You have a lot on your plate right now. I will keep you in my thoughts and my prayers. I don't know of a doctor for that but maybe you could ask Jan.
I'll be praying for you. Bless your heart!
I'll also keep you in my prayers.
Ya Sweetie, I know how you feel about no time! >') But I will admit your a lot busier than me!!!
I hope you are feeling better by now...The high BP is probably stress-related. I'm certainly no nurse like you, but from one stressed-out chick to another --- it's probably lifestyle related. Fortunately, your current high-stress life won't continue forever! This semester will be over before you know it!
