I live in Overland Park, and I'm not familiar with a 2nd Whole Foods. There is one listed at 119th Street, but it's actually a Whole Foods owned Wild Oats. The one on 91st Street is where we do all our grocery shopping. Isle 4 has a "gluten free" section. And, there is also a freezer dedicated to gluten-free foods - but it's almost all Whole Foods Bakehouse.

On 95th Street, across Metcalf, there is a Hy-Vee grocery store that has an entire isle of gluten free foods - different brands that what Whole Foods carries. They have the Kinikinnick stuff that WF will not carry. =)

Whatcha doin' in the area??

You'll love it here... if it warms up. (Geez!)

Thanks for the info. We go to the big hardware show at the Overland Park Convention Center every March and Sept. The two stores I saw on line were the ones on 91st and 119th. I went to the HyVee last time we were there. I hope it warms up too. I would love to get out and walk.

The convention center is pretty much right smack in between the two stores! =)

It's at 110th and Metcalf - so you would not have far to go to get to either, though... due to traffic patterns, it might be easier to get to 119th. I live closer to 91st, but when I need something like EnerG Wylde Pretzels, I'll hit Wild Oats, since WF doesn't carry them.

      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/

      A lot to think about here. Does anyone have any recommendations for third party laboratories that will do full panel celiac screens private pay in the U.S.?

      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 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.
