I think the idea of getting the biology degree from TESC or the natural sciences / math degree would be great. If you're desperate to get out of what you're doing for work right now, you might consider doing a post-bacc teacher certification to be a science or math teacher (most states have a high demand for teachers in those areas). WGU has an NCATE certified program that you can do online to get teacher certified in science. Science Teacher Certification | Teacher Certification Online | WGU Teachers College Online From what I understand, you can get financial aid for those teacher cert programs through wgu.
Now I know you didn't mention teaching anywhere, but it might be a fast way to get out of tech support and closer to something having to do with science. That way you can have a job doing something else while you figure out what you want to do exactly and start the schooling those other things will take.
Just a side note, when I was on the WGU site I noticed they have a degree in Health Informatics... Health Informatics Degree | Online Bachelor ... sounds like an IT healthcare hybrid, thought you might want to take a look.
