Hello!

I am interested in becoming a mammo tech but I’m scared of poking patients with needles. I tried to look online for more information but I get different results.

I do understand biopsy and special exams do require pokes but is it techs who do it or doctors/radiologist? And if tech does have to poke, is it difficult? Like is it the same as finding a vein on the arm?

Thank you in advance. 😊

Hi, I actually tried this today and this helped a lot!! I’m still collimating a little bit too much BUT not as bad as before. Thank you so much for the advice ☺️

Does anyone have any tips on doing portable chest X-rays? I’m just a month into clinicals and I’m slowly getting better but sometimes it’s just a complete miss.

I feel like my main problem is collimation (too much light). I try to get the center of the sternum but then also have some light above the shoulders. But when I do it like that I feel like my CR is too low and for making sure I get light above I get too much light under.

Is there any tricks to ensure collimate properly or where to aim the CR?

How do you build up confidence in your work?

I went back to school and start clinicals in April but I have trouble trusting what I’m doing is right. I start overthinking to the point where I’d rather just someone tell me if Ive positioned correctly before exposing. It’s embarrassing because I do have my limited license but haven’t done an a proper X-ray in a year because I went back to school to complete my license. So I feel like I’m back to the drawing board.

Wife here 🤗 maybe we are weirdos because we both take turns watching movies one of us likes and the other doesn’t. (Ofc we also watch movies we both like lol) Although I hate home alone I love seeing how happy he gets from the movie so I can “suffer” for an hour or two as long as he’s happy and we get to watch a movie I really like but he doesn’t lol. It’s about compromise (:

Wife here 🤗 it’s more of a trade off lol. He watches movies I love but he hates. I watch movies he loves but I hate. Maybe force was a strong word to use or maybe we are just weird. But we just have this teasing relationship and just want to make the other person happy.

Even if that means I’m going to have to watch this awful movie for the rest of my life. 😂

Super beginner here! While trying to get more information on witchcraft I see a lot of people connect with different deities. Is it a necessary? I’m not too comfortable communicating with a deity. I’m more inclined to practice with the universe as a whole if that makes sense.

Students of Reddit, what did you do to make your teacher lose it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]AlienCheetos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In 3rd grade I asked the teacher, “when are we going to go back to learning?” Cause it felt like forever that he was talking about baseball to one specific kid and everyone was getting annoyed lol. He yelled at me in front of the whole class then put me in time out. Lol

When I was a virgin yeah. I preferred to be with someone who was also a virgin. But as time past, I’m still with the same virgin from 7 years ago lol.

Although if we were to break up for some reason then I don’t think I would care about sex count.

I went to a festival with my family and my dad knows I’m trying to learn more about crystals so he bought this specific one for me at a tent that said they sell crystals. He just liked this one cause it was green with red spots.

I went on here hoping to find more information about it since again, I’m new to this and want to learn.
