I don't get a chance to post much or read the board much, but was just wondering if anyone here is in the Dallas/Fort Worth area? We are in North Richland Hills Just wanted to email or chat with people to get the best ideas and places to shop here for things for my 3 year old. We LOVE our GI and have no doctor complaints :) (we go to Medical City Dallas)

Please email me if you think you can help me :)

Hi Amanda

Are you eating gluten free too or is it just your daughter?

I'm donna I live in Arlington, Texas Im sure you know of the place, with the new stadium that we are beign graced with. Yes I voted for it but now I wish that I did not its a total mess over there, any way did not mean to get off the subject. I don't know much about your area, I know that there is a store kinda like Whole Foods in your area I think I have not a clue as to where it is or the name. Central Market is in Ft Worth, off Briant Irvin BLVD, but have been told by co-workers who shop there they have not seen much Glutne free foods there. Whole Foods is in Arlington just off I-30 and Collins, and it is to the left on Lamar BLVD. WHole Foods is wonderful you can ask for a Gluten free food list and it is pretty lengthy, much is pricy as you can tell. Wal-Mart has started carring some Gluten free foods, but not all walmarts carry the same stuff. their walmart brands Value will say Gluten Free on some foods, You just have to take your time shopping don't take you daughter if possible so you can take your time. these are some items that I have seen

all Value brands be sure and look at the back

Bacon

Lunch meat (they also carry the Hormel natural these are priced the same and you can get coupons in the newspaper) both priced at 2.98

Sloppy joe suace

Potted meat

Tuna Value brand

some walmarts do carry Bob Mills flours not all are gluten free

Ceral Dora the Explore Cinniamin Stars

Fruity Pebbles

Tai Kitchen Noodles (better selections are at the main grocery stores)

My Kroger has a new natural food selection complete with all Amy's line, plus all pizza with the Rice crust

Van Waffles (you have to be carefull the flavored ones are not glutne free)

Kinninnick breads (the brown bread is a little doey)

Some Bob Mills flour mixes but More $ than Whole Foods

Gorilla Ceral these taste like PoPs Ceral

Pamela Cookies (cheaper at Whole foods)

I know that this is a small list but It will help a little, also look on the tread here on the shopping thread someone posted about Kroger has a list of gluten free foods.

      Celiac and allergic to common subs and adds in prepared foods

      By DAR girl · Posted

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      Disregarded

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Oldturdle · Posted

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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 ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
