Hi! I am currently torn between ultrasound tech or rad/xray tech. Some background info I recently graduated with my Bachelor’s in Public Health and Wellness. I currently work as a medical receptionist at an outpatient PT clinic, and I know I want a career with a lot of patient interaction. That’s one of the reasons I’m leaning more toward ultrasound, specifically OB/GYN ultrasound. I like the idea of working closely with patients and being involved in an important part of their care. However, I also like that rad/xray tech gives you the opportunity to advance into different modalities, such as MRI or CT, which makes me feel like there may be more long-term options. One of my biggest concerns is how competitive both ultrasound and rad tech programs seem to be, especially since I’d really like to start school as soon as possible.

For anyone working in either field, what do you like/dislike about your career, and which would you recommend? Also, how competitive was your program to get into?

Hi! I’m torn between PT and ultrasound tech and could really use some advice! I recently graduated with my Bachelor’s in Public Health and Wellness. I originally planned on applying to PT school, but the cost and potential debt made me start considering ultrasound. I shadowed in ultrasound and enjoyed it, but I still felt drawn back to PT. I currently work as a PT aide at an outpatient clinic, and seeing the PTs make a real difference in their patients’ lives keeps making me question whether I’d regret not pursuing PT. At the same time, I’m worried about taking on so much debt for PT school. With ultrasound, my biggest concern is the risk of developing injuries from the physical demands of the job.

If you work in either field, I’d love to hear your honest experiences and advice!

My boyfriend and I have been dating for 4 months. Even when we were talking I was bothered by him still following his ex girlfriend (they were together for 2 years), but I decided to just move on and forget about it because it is just instagram and it's not like he is interacting with her on instagram. However, last week he had a conversation with me that he did not like that I still follow/ like guy celebrities on instagram. He said it is weird and said that when we first started dating he unfollowed all the girl celebrities on his page because he didn't want to see the posts since he is dating me now, but yet, he still follows his ex. Should I address this or just let it go?
