Maxillary sinus cyst

By

I am 38 y.o. male in good health with no other issues. I have a maxillary sinus cyst (pics below) in left sinus, both dentist and endodontist say the teeth look fine and it is not tooth related but my ENT also says that the cyst is of NO consequence and NOT causing issues which are nasal pressure sometimes eye pressure but mostly a easily horse voice, if I talk for 5 minutes I feel like I had been yelling at a concert all night. I’m also a singer and this has wrecked my progress for years now.

I’m trying to get other opinions as I currently have no clear course to try to get it treated. My ENT said he would try a balloon sinus procedure to maybe pop it or do full on sinus surgery and fully remove it, but he also does not think it will help me just said he would technically do it if I requested.

I have ruled out allergies, heartburn, silent reflux, inside of mouth/throat , vocal cords and tonsils all look good. I’ve spent years trying to figure it out going to numerous doctors. I need to find out if I need to have the cyst removed or just start the whole process again with a now third ent, I would hate to get an unnecessary surgery and looking for any advice you may have. All the specialists simply blame the other one so no clear answer.

Thank you for your time.MSRC 1

Do rad techs/sonographers deal with vomit often?

By
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/

I got into the Rad Tech program!

By
I just want to share with you that I finally got into the program at our local community college and i’m starting this summer. For context, I’m already 30yo with a prior BS degree and decided on a career change. During the pandemic until this semester, I took my time to take all the pre-reqs and GEs required while working. I also volunteered at a hospital for over a year. It was optional due to COVID, but I still did it to get the brownie points. I finally applied last March 2023 and received good news last Friday. The program is based on a pointing system, so I think having good grades really mattered. It was my first time applying and the only program I applied to. I didn’t know it was possible to get in on your first try because of all of the stories I’ve been reading, so don’t lose hope because it’s possible! Wishing everyone who’s applying this year good luck. You can do this! If you have questions, I will do my best to answer them 😊 also if you have tips on how to survive this ...
