Hi all. Some may remember me, some may not. I was dxed with GBS the first week of february 2006. I had to leave nursing school, which I did return to in august 2008. I am happy to say I am doing well and pulling A’s Yay-however i am in one of the classes I left went I got sick and it is like deja-vu big time. I am starting my clinical rotations in may, and I had to get a waiver from the neuro to get out of the yearly flu shot. I am so glad to come back here and see familiar names helping each other out. I am planning on working in the neuroscience med/surg unit or ICU, where I will help people with GBS, MS, strokes. I am happy to say my fatigue fog has been gone for awhile, and my only residual is occasional nerve pain on the side of my left knee. I wish you all the best.

Way to Go Cara!,
Nice to hear things are going good and that you are pursuing your degree and have also taken direction to help US! We are all behind you.
Where are you doing your clinicals? Lehigh Valley or St Lukes?See Ya Cara,

I have to do clinicals at both, as well as pocono med ctr, and kidspeace I believe. St Lukes and LVH are both excellent establishments. When I had GBS I was at st lukes bethlehem. Thanks for all the well wishes. You are right, I was blessed, and I believe nursing is my purpose in life along with being a mother.
