- Scott Adams replied to Jenny (AZ via TX)'s topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications5Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?
PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the... -

Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history
You don't need an official diagnosis to request a gluten-free diet in either a hospital or nursing home--this can be requested by anyone. The higher costs associated with existing conditions for life insurance is a reality, and regardless of your politics, it could become a reality again for health insurance in the USA. For many this could make health insurance... -

@Joel K If the OP is ever in the hospital, and her celiac disease tests did come back positive and she does have celiac disease, she can just tell the doctors that she needs a gluten-free diet because she has celiac disease. They will listen to her, in all probability. And honestly, celiac disease is not taken very seriously inside hospitals, to say nothing...

The higher costs associated with existing conditions for life insurance is a reality, and regardless of your politics, it could become a reality again for health insurance in the USA. For many this could make health insurance unaffordable, thus, everyone who is undiagnosed should understand such potential consequences before they go the official diagnostic route. As mentioned, once it's on your medical record, it won't go away. -
Im beyond frustrated on so many levels. I have always checked labels , have to read everything. Allergic to everything foods and medications. My skin has sores, my body aches my eye is effected, im actively dealing with all these lovely issues, sibo positive, ibs, high blood pressure now dealing with depression because my new doctors after 25 years of many test dancing around my disregarded celiac disease that I was half ass told im 1994 by endoscopy and colonoscopy stating to stay away from wheat and Ill be fine Im not.I had to reprove my disease with another endoscopy and colonoscopy. Had blood work with new gi and of course blood work shows fabulous, nothing wrong. Im not eating the foods im not supposed too.Im stressed and fired of fighting of my disregarded celiac.

And honestly, celiac disease is not taken very seriously inside hospitals, to say nothing of emergency departments, where in any case, the pt may not be able to verbalize anything, and the staff have to act right then.
