@BarbieQPickle,
Hi, Barbie. I was a lab tech for fifteen years, and had good experiences in research and clinical labs. I found out, rather late, that I liked art, and when pursuing that as a hobby, found out I really like design.
So - if you like design (I didn't know what that meant, at all) I now think one can design in the medical field, or in art fields, computer fields, and many others.
Or you can work in those fields and do your own thing on your own time.
I could have saved myself some years if I understood what I liked to do better, back when I was a tech.. but I wasn't aware of all that yet.
So, explore what you like.
