Medical sales representitive - any experience?

Sorry for the anon but I suspect my ward manager is a member and knows who I am so I need to ask this question anonymously
I'm considering a career in medical rep/sales, I'm a nurse with little interest at this stage and I think this could be a change of direction I'd enjoy.
Has anyone experience of this type of job? Really i want to identify the pitfalls and the things they won't tell you in interview. I have a position that looks like it could be a runner but as I've never really had much to do with the reps I don't know if I'm setting myself up for a fall.
The driving and self direction parts of the job I think I will enjoy as well as the constant change and need to be on form. But I'm afraid that I'm painting a unrealistic picture of what it will mean for me and and how I will work it around a family.
