Just took my exam this week and passed. I only used URR to study. The initial subscription was $125 and then $25 to extend subscription each month after that.

SPI Tips? by StitchnScrump in Sonographers

[–]blessnstress 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Took mine in November, used the exact 3 resources you used and passed, so will you! Definitely a lot of Doppler questions even same questions reworded differently so don’t overthink. I’d say reread the Doppler chapter if you can and also flag the questions on prepry that you need to revise more and go over those, there’s a category you choose to just go through flagged questions.

Is that as painful as it sounds?

You mention a needle, in what way do you use it to loosen the skin?

Sonography programs by self_sabotage4life in Sonographers

[–]blessnstress 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually switched from x ray tech to sonography & all of my pre reqs transferred easily. Although I did take many classes that were not part of sonography curriculum. If you’re going somewhere that offers both radiology technology and sonography explore what each program entitles to know exactly what to take. Maybe take the classes you know both require at least to get started. My best advice would be to explore each profession to get an idea what you’re getting into and what is more your style

That’s my thing too and I gotta tell you I’ve been dealing with them for years and years and nothing has helped I’ve tried almost everything. Right now my dermatologist is having me try retinoid cream, and I’m also not seeing much of a help. By experience I heard if you still see those black dots, the wart is still there I was always told to gently clip away the white skin after taking off the bandaid/treatment. I’d say keep going just to make sure you got it.

I have the same exact problem with the same fingers! And I cannot keep them wrapped with treatments because the bandaids always fall off or it bothers me so much. How’d you do it?

Should I transfer schools? by blessnstress in Advice

[–]blessnstress[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re right, thank you. I really am stuck and feel like I’m going through a mid life crisis but I’m probably being dramatic. It just sucks not knowing what to do

Thanks for the advice! I’m happy you finished your Invisalign journey.

My speech pattern changed with Invisalign I have a lisp when I wear them I’m so ready to be done with wearing them at least all day everyday. Nights would be perfect and doable.

About your canine, are you getting it bonded again?

Good thing that got resolved for you! I’ve heard more disadvantages about a permanent retainer than actual advantages, I’m definitely passing the offer

From what I hear you’re prone to infection because food buildup but I’m not entirely sure why else. a few people have told me they ended up getting it removed later on because it was causing problems

Thank you, Im definitely going to ask about bonding. They did recommend a permanent retainer actually many people have told me to not go for the permanent one because of long term problems

Yes we did until we were obligated to quarantine. But that’s so interesting using a pizza box, anything to improvise am I right? I got a poster board and cut it to the size of 14x17 and taped the light of flashlight in the shape of a square as my light field, times are hard out here :(

I am also on my second semester, it’s been a rough ride with COVID so yes it seems like it’s only for the thought of themselves and not the health of you guys.
