During the postpartum period a client with heart disease and type 2 diabetes asks a nurse, "Which contraceptives will I be able to use to prevent pregnancy in the near future?" How should the nurse respond?
"You should use foam with a condom to prevent pregnancy—this is the safest method for women with your illnesses."
I am pretty sure its b. "you shouldn't care about people opinion and it shouldn't affect you" or summ.

The answer to this question is that the nurse should suspect
that the client is suffering from Hyperkalemia.
<span>Hyperkalemia is a situation where in patients is having a
high level of potassium in the blood. This situation is life threatening that
it can lead to cardiac arrest and mortality. Chest pains, palpitations,
tingling sensation or feeling of numbness, and trouble breathing are some of
the symptoms of having hyperkalemia. In mild cases of hyperkalemia, patients
are treated by instructing the patient to have a diet plan that is low in
potassium. They are also advised to take a diuretic in order to decrease the
potassium levels in the blood by excreting it in the urine.</span><span> </span>
Assignment: <em>In your opinion, why would a person be negatively effected by using drugs or alcohol? Please give examples in your explanation.</em>
Response: Drugs and alcohol mean bad business, regardless of where you are. They cause addictive and obsessive behavior, and some say that when they were heavily influenced by the usage of those items, they felt a part of them was missing without taking it. They became hostile and were set off by the smallest things, even if they weren't that big of a deal. People no longer wanted to spend time with them anymore, and they would spiral into a deep dark depression period where they had gone so far in, getting out was nearly impossible to think of at that time. This is one of the more serious consequences of drugs and alcohol, but a very likelihood of taking it. It's horrifying to think about how your future could be over just by a single decision.
Uplifting Note: 2020 may be bad, and 2021 may be worse, but that's what life is. We are a united people who will get through it together.
