Default LC friendly Nurse

I had to go talk to one of the Nurses in the On Campus clinic here. We were talking and she asked about my weight loss, and if I was on any specific plan (just general infor for the charts). When I told her I was on Atkins she asked how much weight I lost. She said she was very impressed with my weight loss and commitment to exercising. She was very supportive and didn't say a single negative thing. It was very incouraging.

I had gone in for a spleen check. Apperently I have a spleen doctors can feel, but it's not tender. I needed to get an outside Nurse of physician to check it in order to write a letter stating it was safe for me to donate plasma. I know there would probably doctors who woudl of heard the word Atkins and swore it was to blame along with any other health problems I may or may not ever experience in my life :P
