Every time I've had my bp measured I've had to tell the clinician to stop talking to me which itself angered me and surely this raised it! Why are so few clinisians aware of their influence on measurements?!

I have to wear compression socks for low blood pressure. I love my pro compression socks and how fun they are. I was wondering how often do you need to replace your compression socks that you wear daily.

Thank you so much! I got a sprained ankle and they wrapped it with an ace bandage but I didn’t think to memorize how they did it or ask for instruction 😅

Hi Sandra. Hope you remember me - Cue. The cracks in your voice and your down to earth beauty just warms my heart still. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Thank you so much ma'am I'm from India.

Recommend for compression tights in white

Sandra, you make it look so easy but if you are over weight, have trouble bending and are not flexible it is next to impossible to get them on. I have bought an expensive pressure sock applier and still can't get them on. So if you are fit and flexible like yourself it looks like it is easy but in reality most have trouble putting them on or can't get them on at all. 😞

You seem to❤ only the positive reviews on LASIK, but it's just too risky in operation

That's right. I used to help my patients do that. Pretty easy.

"Please give a thumbs up" Yeah I got that joke, lol.

As a CMA-MBA I have found a lot of basic medical supplies at the Dollar Tree. Bandages🩹🩹 and Gauze and Coban wrap helped when my late wife had 🩸 bleeding after Dialysis treatments. The pill cutters was a huge shavings vs other stores like CVS Walgreens that charge upto $5 for a pill cutter. It helped to keep basic OTC medications for general use. An excellent resource for basic first aid kit building. 😊

What is am Imperial Shih-Tzu? I haven't heard of that breed before. I have a Shih-Tzu. My dog sounds like she's related to yours, treating treats like your does 😮

if you don't mind me asking, was the surgery you received using the "waveguided" LASIK or conventional?

Thank you for sharing your story, I'm hoping to get laser eye correction. I will definitely keep the correction zone in mind when talking to the doctor. No idea how big my pupils get, but my eyes are blue. I will also look at the waveguided PRK or LASIK which hopefully corrects starburst patterns ahead of time.

I got lasik almost a week ago and at right eye still feels like I have a little sand in it I am hoping this changes I am also blonde. I am not rubbing my eyes and taking my drops. As of tomorrow though I will be calling the doctor about it.

THANK YOU, SANDRA!!! Your method is just as effective to put on thigh-high compression hose!

Thank you for this important information!❤️

You Are A Genius !!! Yay !!!

What about giving capsules?

I'm a hooper and thank you for this video ❤

This is exactly the video I needed to watch. As a new grad RN I’m feeling all the stress you describe. It was very validating to hear you talk about it all. It felt reassuring to hear that these feelings are normal particularly in the first 6 months-1 year and will get better in time. And also to consider experiences in different hospitals and areas of nursing vary. Thank you for all your advice and thank you for making this video 😊

its very helpful.God bless you lady

Thank you for explaining HOW they work! Awesome!

I've been measured twice by two different places and I'm right in the middle of two sizes - medium and large. I've tried both and I still don't know which one to choose. The mediums tend to bunch up a little in back of the knees, so I need to pull them up again in the back, then I use that "It Stays" glue to hold them in place. (I wear 20-30 thigh highs). Of course, the large fees looser, but I'm concerned they are too loose. How do you know if they are too loose? Someone told me that I should be able to grab the material on my lower leg and pull it away from my skin. With these, I can. Not so with the mediums. Have you ever heard that? I actually wearing these in the summer. They are so hot and miserable, but I don't have a choice. Thanks for the video!!

Good video. Thanks. I do see that this technique would not work for hip replacement patients. It's exactly what they tell us not to do. No crossing legs with knee up and crossing over the other leg.

5th intercoastal space-Tricuspid valve... U said 4th intercoastal space instead of 5th

I find that after I grab the heel and turn them inside out I need to put my hand in and make sure the foot portion is not bunched up and open so it doesn't get caught up on my toes or twisted around.

Very Good Information

Weird that you did not state what the compression rating was of these socks (mm Hg pressure)

Thank YOU for showing a much easier way to put them on and off.

Good to see you again and share your experience. Greetings from saudi

Thanks for sharing your experience ! I'm thinking of getting lasik. It suggested me your 10 years post op video, so I'm gonna watch it

Tutorial starts at 1:53

I did sprain my wrist

You think nurses get a lunch? 😂😂😂 I would ask how much RN exp you got before NP. We NEVER get lunches or breaks hardly ever

I finally got them on! And I only screamed in pain & cried from frustration ONCE! Happy Happy! Joy Joy! Ty

22% of patients experience occular pain up to 6 months post op. Dear reader, do you think it is worth the risk?

Is the air time supposed to equal the bone time so that it translates to 2x as long, or is it supposed to literally be 2x as long?

I a diabetic and I’m using a 15 by 30 is type on the calf so I’m not sure what I should get?

Hi ❤ can you please tell me if we reuse creap bandage after one time usage ?

"You should only be taking them for 5-7 days". Me: Whoops!

How did you not hurt your elbow

Thanks nurse❤️✅

Thanks working from home has my legs swollen sitting at the desk, even after getting up every 2 hours

I’ve had to go through rebounds a few times. Recently used it for a week and my noise is still blocked coming up on day 5 without it.
