Traveling with disciplined license

I have 13 years experience in travel nursing with several different national companies--and all positive experiences with positive evaluations.
2 years ago, while on a "hiatus" from traveling, I made a mistake, and had disciplinary action taken upon my "home" license--none of my previous licenses were active, so they were not affected.
I absolutely LOVED travelling and desperately miss those wonderful experiences. If I have permanent disciplinary action on a license, will I ever be able to travel again?
I have fulfilled all requirements with the board to reinstate my license, however, the disciplinary action is permanent--and, unfortunately, because it had to do with misuse of meds, I also have a criminal record for 3 years.
I have paid the consequences for a really stupid error in judgement and again, have fulfilled all requirements, but am feeling pretty hopeless about doing what I love most--travelling....
Any feedback would be GREATLY appreciated.

Hello!
I am a recruiter for Medical Staffing Network. Before any judgement can be made more specifics are needed such as the offense for the criminal record. If you would like to email me personally I can evaluate the situation and give you a straight up answer.
