Risk from swallowed nose ring and MRI

Hello, happy to delete this if posts like this aren't allowed

I have an MRI tomorrow and Ive been freaking out a bit because 2.5 months ago I may have swallowed a nose ring (it was while hooking up with someone, they thought they had swallowed it or lost it but there's a chance I could have swallowed it). Is it safe for me to get an MRI? Should I request an x-ray beforehand to minimize risk? I really don't want metal shooting out of my body lol

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/
