ARCHIVED Where To Get Blood Test When Uninsured And Poor?

Yes, JW - it's not always written the same, but "Gliadin Antibodies (AGA-IgA and AGA-IgG)" seems to cover/combine all the names. -

Ooh a cool double! My anthro course would've been for non-majors, but it was fantastically interesting & a pretty popular course to boot. I remember smiling at the time when I found I wouldn't have to take History of Western Civ after all, since all I'd ever heard was complaints about it, but in hindsight I know it would've been good for me to take... -

Lol oops sorry Shadow (& MW), I should've read back . . .. .this surfing on a phone stuff sometimes leads me to skip such steps. Or maybe this time it's the forum january molassesness. Anyway ... .ahhhh keeping on schedule for grad & good to hear it's only a 2 credit jump. What will your degree be in? -

Hey MindWarp, so what's the deal on the 21 units? Have you taken such high load before? I don't know if I remember anyone finishing a semester w/ that many. Maybe your system is different, but you did say semesters, not quarters. (Learned long ago to not compare my sems w/ others' qtrs) Loved my Astronomy classes to the point I almost majored in it... -

Djya check the tub? Weren't the Twa considerably larger than GI Joe/Barbie size? (Oops *Aren't*! . ..sorry Twa!) P'raps Sam Hill Manhead's original disposers dropped it whilst surveilling his whereabouts. Makes perfect sense if the crutch-tip doubled as a scale model for a Burundian hat for a Jeeyi Joe Manhead scale model of Sam. -
I don't know if it's applicable, but I'm certain my hearing improved once 100% gluten-free as an adult - it had been a slow decline. The age 7 biz is nonsense, imho. When I've seen age-related limitations, it's more like questioning how many months old is ok for an endoscopy - far different scale.

I'm with you on this one Leeloff - there's no way for her to really know this. And also, the Dr's genetic comment is wrong. US just using 2 genes, while I've seen talk of 8 or 9 found to be involved so far, and have seen ppl here say that in Europe they already use more than the 2 we look for. We have a few members here neg on the 2 genes but pos through...

Glad you posted this, Bill. I've barely been able to believe how vehemently some claim the opposite around here, as if a biopsy can't possibly be positive w/out constant gluten up to the day of the procedure. We just had another newer member w/ a positive biopsy after SEVEN months gluten-free. (Of course it's not a recommended testing strategy - I need... -

Vote . . check. No line! I'd allotted energy for a line! So I popped over to a nearby guitar store to check out some hollow-bodied electrics. Want want want.

Yesterday Ohio Gov Kasich was practically already apologizing for how long it'll take them to count it up, what w/ all the new voter suppression attempts expected to result in record #s of provisional ballots.

Ugh, another Dr thinking celiac symptoms fit in one tiny specific box, while we know they can be all over the map. Good luck w/ getting relief from gluten-free, whether celiac or not. Remember that simpler, whole foods are better for us than highly-processed gluten-free substitutes. -
