Does anyone have the experience of losing work-time pre-diagnosis as
your health deteriorated, and then being threatened with termination?
Is this an issue that has been argued under the ADA?
A friend of a friend  in her mid-50s is reportedly being threatened
by a major corporate employer in Arizona - lost a lot of work time,
and it probably cost employer a lot of insurance $ in futile
searching before they realized it was celiac.  Don't know more
details, but am looking for others who may have struggled with these
issues for insight or competent legal referral.
I would imagine her health would be improving but I know sometimes
the secondary health effects can have lingering consequences, even
after going GF.
Thanks

Jack
