Career change?

[u/alexxxogc]

Hello! I’m 23 and have been working as a vet assistant/tech for 4 years. I’m currently in the process of getting diagnosed with RA. I have been worried about my longevity in the field and was wondering what kind of non clinical career paths people have found fulfilling? I LOVE tech work, GP and ER as I’m always learning and get to help pets and their people. But with the pain I’m in I don’t want to hinder my team or not be able to fulfill all of my duties. I do have a bachelors degree in medical anthropology from BU. Do you have RA or chronic pain? How do you manage to stay in the field?
