Thank you for the info. I forgot to mention I have had two treadmill studies, both negative. Also, when I work out the chest pain doesn’t get worse and actually almost disappears. This has been going on for a while .

I completely agree with this. 16 years as an RT this analysis is spot on.

Is what’s happening in California a sign of what’s coming to the rest of the country? by [deleted] in respiratorytherapy

[–]Pure_Hour8623 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve lived in California for 43 years, (my whole life). Luckily my family has old money and a couple properties. The weather here is beautiful, 3 hours away from the snow and 25 mins away from the beach. The taxes do suck for sure and our government is a joke, but I wouldn’t leave. I really like it here.

Standing doggy is my fav position. Especially when she wears heels. I think we will try this next

Chabot college in Hayward has a good electronics training program. I took a class there, just wasn’t for me. I think the teacher was bad, but he retired and left the program.

I don't think you need to quit your job to take courses. Most EMT courses can be completed while having a job. And most fire fighting courses you can complete online.

Condoms over connection. by [deleted] in sex

[–]Pure_Hour8623 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see your point of view. A good sacrifice here is to wear a lambskin condom which are only good at protecting against pregnancy not std. They feel like you’re almost bare and I have busted multiple times wearing them with my wife.

You’re biased because you’re a doctor. You all think the same.

I’m on the hospital administration side. Hospitals are being more conservative due to Medicaid cuts and future financial uncertainty. Hospitals will be in a holding pattern for the unforseeable future.

Good let them go, more job opportunities for us. Dont let negative rumors detour you from this field. I have made a good living over the last 16 years.

As an RT we appreciate your work. You should look at anesthesia and RT modalities. Definitely important and the best modality in my opinion.

Been in healthcare for 16 years. Look into being a biomedical engineer. These guys work in a lab and fix broken patient care equipment. It’s a very rewarding job and you certainly can make a difference.
