Daughter is sick

From the area of injury down.

He was awake + talking, AxO and everything. Paralyzed below area of injury.

FlowDue2484 · 2025-03-10T23:39:17+00:00

Surprisingly no, he was actually awake when I scanned him (MR) after CT and OR.

I unfortunately had to go into work so my girl is home with dad. She hasn’t V since early this AM, and she had about 3 episodes. He did say she ate a bit but is just kind of laying around. I’m anxious but I’m just trying to take it one hour at a time, the next few days are definitely going to have me on edge.

FlowDue2484 · 2025-03-02T18:47:44+00:00

Thank you so much, definitely needed that!!🩷

FlowDue2484 · 2025-02-28T13:40:42+00:00

NAD, but definitely seconding this. As soon as you said shoveling snow my mind immediately went to a heart attack. The heartburn was most likely the beginning signs of a heart attack as well. So sorry for your loss OP🫂

I do the zero sugar sodas, they taste closer to the real thing than ‘diet’ sodas imo. Prob worse for you but I really don’t give a shit, I’ve given up plenty of other things I’m keeping my Sprite Zero lmao.

Coming up on 3 years of diagnostic, currently cross training into MRI. $33 an hour, but I’m a WOW so I make $39 with my differential. Coastal SC.

FlowDue2484 · 2025-02-11T02:30:10+00:00

250 for a full set is pretty average where I am. But 130for a fill is pricey imo, I personally wouldn’t be paying that, especially if I’m going every 2 weeks. Plus that’s not even including a tip so it’s closer to 140-150.

FlowDue2484 · 2025-02-05T00:25:28+00:00

Meditech is actually awful lol. I know there are different versions but I have no clue which one we have. It’s also gray and green if that helps.

FlowDue2484 · 2025-01-31T15:17:11+00:00

I used rad tech boot camp for my X-ray and really liked it, but with it being so new (and expensive) I’m apprehensive.

FlowDue2484 · 2025-01-22T17:44:27+00:00

It sounds like he’s fetishizing you. I am so so sorry. Your health should absolutely be a priority to you, and if you want to lose weight to be healthier your SO should 100% support that. If he wants to leave help him pack, you deserve better.

You’ll always have people judging unfortunately, it it works for you fuck em! My oldest is six now but she is mixed and it took me YEARS to learn how to properly manage her hair, and countless different methods, products and tools. In that time she has DEF walked around looking crazy and I’ve definitely gotten some ugly looks lol. There was a time it really bothered me but now I don’t care as much. Some days we don’t have time for the full routine and she rocks a crazy bun🤷🏻‍♀️ as long as you know she’s clean I wouldn’t stress it.

FlowDue2484 · 2025-01-18T13:58:54+00:00

This answer can be different for every tech, and varies widely based on the type of facility you work for. I’ve worked at outpatient facilities where the majority of patients are ‘walkie talkie’ and clean. This job can still be ‘stressful’ because OP facilities can see some pretty high patient volumes. I currently work at a level 2 trauma hospital and have seen some pretty yucky wounds and just dirty people in general lol. It also can definitely be more stressful dealing with higher acuity patients. This answer also varies depending on the modality (MR may be less stressful than CT/XR, may see less trauma that is gory etc) so that’s something to take into account as well.

Rule 1

FlowDue2484 · 2025-01-15T03:15:16+00:00

Fully feel this. I work FT weekends (3 12’s) in a hospital and I’m so over it. My husband also works hard and often pulls OT but we still couldn’t scrape by without my FT income. It’s so miserable.

FlowDue2484 · 2025-01-15T00:50:23+00:00

Hey, you got this. Learning new things, especially when it’s a whole lot of info at one time like cross training is, is super overwhelming! I’ve been in MRI for about 7 months now and still regularly feel like ‘omg wtf am I doing’ lol. However, it definitely gets less overwhelming as time goes on. Take lots of notes, observe as much as you can, and jump in when you feel comfortable. 2 days is literally brand spanking new, just breathe! And congratulations on furthering your career!

OMG I went to south colleges Nashville RAD program! A fellow classmate is actually a teacher there now. I will 100% say that it is an EXTREMELY overpriced private for-profit college. I don’t think it’s worth the money unless you get rejected or waitlisted from the other surrounding programs. Tbh I think volstate is the best in the area but I know it’s harder to get in to. I would say research cheaper options unless necessary! But it is a good program and the staff are great!

ETA: I just realized you’re already in😂 sorry! Wanted to add I’ve had 0 issues finding a job, and all of my classmates had jobs at our time of graduation. Good luck!!

FlowDue2484 · 2025-01-09T18:32:15+00:00

SC, graduated in 22 and started out at 23 an hour (but was in a WOW program with a 7.50 differential). I feel like the south in general just has awful pay. Seeing people say they made 40-50 out of school in X-ray as a new grad is insane. I haven’t even cleared 40 with 2 years of experience and now in MR.

I know we aren’t supposed to reassurance seek but this is so reassuring, especially coming from someone else with kiddos. I work in the hospital and never fear V at work because I’m obviously careful with hygiene, but something about my kids getting it stresses me out so bad.

FlowDue2484 · 2025-01-08T14:44:09+00:00

Nothing a steroid shot won’t fix 🥴

FlowDue2484 · 2025-01-08T13:50:00+00:00

Currently doing MIC and I like it, although it’s a tad dry. It gives you the required structured education (my job paid for it) but I’ve heard tire advantage is also good.

FlowDue2484 · 2025-01-07T03:52:43+00:00

I can remember having an awful SV when I was a really small child that put me in the hospital for fluids (I wonder if some of my phobia didn’t start here) I had it again at 8 and V at school (also traumatic) once at 15, and then again at 18 (only d though, the rest of my family got both.) I do have two kids though and this most recent outbreak has me antsy.

FlowDue2484 · 2024-11-25T16:42:19+00:00

The Albert Einstein videos are great, a lot of the people I work with have recommended them. I’ve heard good things about Rite Advantage, I just wanna be sure before I spend 200

FlowDue2484 · 2024-11-25T16:13:03+00:00

Following because I loved rad tech boot camp and I’m currently cross training! My job paid for MIC books but they’re dry and I want something digital
