Remember to look for others for advice but in the end you know more about “your” body than anybody else. This really hit me, many years ago, when I took on my very first “patient” as a new RN. He was an elderly man and had diabetes which had gone on for years. He was telling me something about “himself” and “his” diabetes and I interrupted and told him that it’s probably not that way exactly because of what I had “read” as a “student”! He said,” Rick, you seem like a nice guy but you only read a book, I have lived “my life” with diabetes for the last 30 years.”
Wow! I’m so grateful to get that message early on in my career! Thanks, Rick
