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.

Cyberprof, if you have any additional resources, I would love to hear about them. Feel free to PM me if you'd rather.

Thanks for posting this!

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

ohsotired Enthusiast

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.

      I know I'm late to the party, but I thought these articles are very interesting.   Doctors don't recognize vitamin deficiency symptoms.   Thiamine deficiency is linked to Long haulers syndrome, too. I had palpitations that only resolved with thiamine Vitamin B 1 supplementation.   Association of vitamin B1 with cardiovascular diseases, all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in US adults https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10502219/   Vicious cycle of vitamin B1 insufficiency and heart failure in cardiology outpatients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11579856/   Micronutrient deficiencies and new-onset atrial fibrillation in...

      @ohmichael, Have you tried contacting your state's Employment Services?   There should be job opportunities and training programs especially for previous service members and veterans.   Look into trade schools.  Some offer training programs which provide scholarships and housing, and possible employment after completion.  Some scholarships are funded by employers looking for specifically trained employees. Choose a career path in something you enjoy doing.   I agree with @Scott Adams.  Play your cards close to your chest.  Get your ducks in a row before discussing leaving the gluten aisle where you work now.  Managers can and will fire you really easily, like Scott...

      @badastronaut, I'm so glad you got your folate and zinc up! I'm a big fan of Benfotiamine.  It's a form of thiamine that promotes intestinal healing.  I take 250 mg Benfotiamine with the first two meals of the day along with a B 50 Complex.  The B vitamins all work together so taking a B Complex with Benfotiamine is great.  I also take a form of thiamine called TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) which helps immensely with brain function, anxiety and depression.  Start off with small doses (50 mg) and increase doses as long as you see improvement.     https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/#:~:text=Benfotiamine (Fig.,]%2C [62]].

      @nanny marley, I had great improvement by supplementing with a B Complex and extra thiamine in the form Benfotiamine which promotes intestinal healing.  I followed the AutoImmune Protocol Diet developed by a doctor with Celiac Disease herself, Dr. Sarah Ballantyne.  The AIP diet removes everything from the diet that can be irritating or hard to digest.  After a period of time to heal, other foods are slowly added back into the diet if tolerated.   For more stories of my journey, read my blogs by clicking on my name and choosing activities in the dropdown menu.

      Hi @Redlima My anxiety hit before diagnosis, and in fact it was anxiety which led me to see a doctor who put me on the road of various blood tests which revealed iron deficiency, raised globulin levels and borderline B12.  At first my GP suspected a type of cancer, and didn't really know what else to make of it until about six months down the road when I started to get diarrhea and was losing weight.  That then led another GP to do more tests and coeliac disease was the culprit. Clinical anxiety can be very scary indeed and I suffered with a horrible, irrational phobia at that time, too.  I could hardly think straight.  My GP put me onto citalopram but also, thankfully, I found a couple of books that...
