Have you ever had an ultrasound?

[420Rachel]

I'm in school to be a sonographer. I'm in love with the field so far and I'm just curious about people's experiences. 😁

I just had one a week ago. Years ago I had a blood clot in my leg. The doc sent me for an ultrasound. The nice ultrasound lady squirted that stuff all over me and got to work. She got this really weird look on her face so I figured it was not good. I had a blood clot from my foot all the way up to my crotch. The next thing I know I was admitted and on IV anti coagulants.
I am glad you are doing so well with this program.

I have, yeah. Got one on my heart when I was having issues breathing after intense workouts during college days.

That was not a fun day since I was waiting with anticipation and running all the potential issues I had in my head.

That's awesome that your in school for it. I haven't experienced the procedure but my mother and grandma both have. And that for both of them the people explained the whole process

Hey there! Nurse here! I personally haven't had an ultrasound done on myself, but I see it very often on the patients I work with!

[420Rachel]

I applied for the nursing program at my school as well but ooooof. I don't do well when someone's life is possibly in my hands. 🤣😭

[SecretsofKB]

It's weird to say but I've gotten used to it lol

More than I can count.

Both shoulders, kidneys, heart, lungs, abdomen (twice), right foot before it was amputated, left ankle, both knees, both hips. About the only parts I've not had scanned are my skull and my balls.

Since I'm now 50 I guess balls will be next...

It is a very interesting field to get into if you are the type of person to work hands on with people. I had an ultrasound once and I thought it was cool. I could see the technologist's screen and it was interesting.

I don't think so, never let a pregnancy go oh long enough to do so. But if doctors did it for other reasons, no idea

[bowenw]

I've had a few. I've always dealt with nice people that explain what's going on and treated me with respect.

[007kingifrit]

yea i had one on my balls actually when i was a teenager lol. i had a vein that was very big and they wanted to look at it. It went away as i got older

[Shy_Steve]
