We don't have an educational forum and this is not just for teenagers and young adults, so I'm posting it here.

If you want to get a degree but have been too sick, check out this innovative program.

And just to add this for anyone that is interested.......it takes a little bit to find it when searching on your own.

What a wonderful story. Is there financial aid available for this type of education?

ranger,

From what I read, yes there is, but you do have to meet certain course load requirements for different types of financial aid. To get specifics, it would probably be best to contact the school.

      Biopsy confirmed no celiac, low gliadin igg but high gliadin iga?

      Biopsy confirmed no celiac, low gliadin igg but high gliadin iga?

      By Gliadingoaway · Posted

      So i was eating tons of gluten my whole life until two months ago when i had high gliadin iga. At that time, i tested negative ttg and biopsy confirmed no celiac. I had h pylori and severe gastritis (no atrophy or ulcers).   fast forward today, i avoided gluten and had antibiotic treatment to erradicate the h pylori. I am feeling much better. A few days ago is when i tested negative for ttg, gliadin igg, endomysial iga. But i did test positive for gliadin iga. Pretty strange because i had gluten three days ago (accidently ate mac and cheese and fried chicken after taking the tests) and i feel fine

      @nanny marley, Are you having an endoscopy at the same appointment as your colonoscopy?  You said you have been going through testing for Celiac.  An endoscopy with several biopsies from the small intestine (after the stomach at the beginning of the digestive tract) is the gold standard for diagnosing Celiac Disease.  Celiac cannot be diagnosed by examining the large intestine and colon.  Colitis occurs at that end of the digestive tract.  I understand you are being checked for Colitis.  Are your doctors also going to do an endoscopy with biopsies at the same appointment to check for Celiac?  Even if you are too unhealthy to undergo a gluten challenge prior to an endoscopy, there are changes consistent with Celiac Disease that can be found by biopsy and microscopic examination.  Also get checked for nutritional deficiencies.  Many of your health complaints you've mentioned in other posts can be connected with vitamin and mineral deficits.

      Washing strawberries in water, which you should always do anyway due to pesticides that may be on them, should make them safe.
