i have an uncle and an aunt that are electrical engineers, both love their job, and have similiar interests to you from what youve said, and they love it.
my mum did radiology or something similiar, im not sure but it was overseas, and she didnt like it and ended up leaving, she was paranoid about radiation, and she has had cancer before and would bet her bottom dollar that her radiology years were a factor towards it, granted in the 80s in greece there wasnt as much safety precautions as today, but idk, she also said that it isnt an overly fun specialty and can get gloomy at times, pay was good but work wasnt "fun"
if your family loves electrical engineering you very well could love it too,
just my 2 cents
