Do you get a TCL error in /var/log/ltm when the second redirect doesn't work? What response does the client get from the VIP? Is it a TCP reset or some kind of HTTP response? If you test with Fiddler for IE or LiveHttpHeaders for Firefox, you can see if there is an HTTP response. Also, can you add logging to the rule so you can see if it's being triggered as you expect? 

 
 when HTTP_REQUEST { 
    if { [HTTP::path] eq "/" }{ 
       HTTP::redirect "https://www.mynurseonline.com/member/" 
       log local0. "[IP::client_addr]:[TCP::client_port]: [HTTP::path] matched path /" 
    } elseif { [HTTP::host] eq "mynurseonline.com" }{ 
       log local0. "[IP::client_addr]:[TCP::client_port]: [HTTP::path] matched host: mynurseonline.com" 
       HTTP::redirect "https://www.mynurseonline.com/member/" 
    } 
 }
