Zero college education but interested in becoming an Xray tech!

I am 30 yrs old, have worked dead end jobs since I was 15 years old and now permanently losing my last job during the pandemic I want to make sure my next move is good for my future. I've read the pros&cons from xray techs and it still sounds like it's for me & that it will be a stable long term well paying job. My problem is I've never been to college and I only have a GED, did not get my HS diploma. Is it still possible for me to quickly become an xray tech? How long does it take? What exact certification should I be going to school for, how does the chain of positions go? How much does it cost for the certification or degrees? I am discouraged because of my age as well as my education. Any information & tips is EXTREMELY appreciated!!!

Do rad techs/sonographers deal with vomit often?

Hi there! I’m currently considering going to school to be a rad tech or sonographer but I’m struggling to find out if you guys deal with vomit a lot. I am emetophobic (phobia of vomit) and, while I think I’d like these jobs a lot, it does worry me to think about having to deal with it often. Thank you for your help! submitted by /u/pootscoot1 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/p5y0aa/do_rad_techssonographers_deal_with_vomit_often/
