I was wondering about they area that are good to live in. My family and I are planing on moving by summer time. I want to be settled by fall cause my oldest child will be starting kindergarten then. I plan on starting college when she starts. I am looking into essec county college. But not for sure. I am thinking about LPN degree or early childhood education. We also thought about north Carolina and Florida. I got family in new York but don't think I will live there because it is so expensive. Just trying to live in a decent area.

Personally I would go with the Durham area in NC. It should be a bit cheaper to live and you have a great medical facility there where you could get your nursing degree. If you can go for a RN rather than LPN the difference in pay will be substantial. This is especially the case if you get a bachlors degree.

NJ will be just as expensive as NY from what I have seen unless you are a good distance from NYC.

Good luck with where ever you choose.

I planned on getting LPN for now then going back when my youngest starts preschool or kindergarten. He turned 1 a few Weeks ago. but if I'm able to I would go for it all. Mg hubby bio-mom live out about 20 min from the beach in n.c. Where is Durham. We plan on taking a road trip in about a month or so to decide where for sure.

Raleigh and Durham are both super options, with lots of young professional, and only a couple of hours from the ocean. :D Or, if you are looking for a small community with a good hospital try Northeast North Carolina. RN's and LPN are always in demand around here.

      TTG IgA 0.30 U/ml: further tests?

      By RMJ · Posted

      Reference range 0.00 to 10.00 means that within that range is normal, so not celiac. There are other antibodies that can be present in celiac disease and they don’t all have to be positive to have celiac.  I’m sure someone else will post a link to an article describing them! Plus, if you are IgA deficient the celiac IgA tests won’t be accurate.

      Gluten Intolerance And Low White Blood Cell Counts?

      Great to have another UK person on the forum!   Re: blood tests, it sounds as if you are being well monitored but if you have any further concerns about blood tests or anything else, do not hesitate to start a new thread. Cristiana

      The patient is positive for DQA1*05, one half of the DQ2 heterodimer

      Julia530 - I have the same gene structure and most of the symptoms you have experienced plus more.....I agree with you whole heartedly!! There are approximately 10 (NOT TWO) genes that can predispose a person to having Celiac Disease. I read in Pub Med that HLA DQA1:05  can result in Celiac Disease in approximately 1 in 875 people. While it is obviously more rare it is NOT BENIGN and should not go unnoticed. Go get the book "NO GRAIN, NO PAIN" and I highly suggest you read it cover to cover. It is written by a Chiropractor who quit his medical education when the VA wouldn't allow him to treat the Veterans with debilitating arthritis with a grain free diet. I have been grain free for over 10 years now.....the facts are we are being lied to! There is a form or gluten in every protein in every grain on the planet of which there are 1000 or more. Just because all they are testing for is the Gliadin in wheat is no excuse to report only partial facts.
