i thought that the Delimex Taquitos were ok as long as they were the ones in corn tortillas, obviously.....but after my daughter started complaining of being nauseated i read the box and found out tonight that the beef and cheese kind are not ok. im sure this is old news to most everyone else on here but we are still fairly new to this. it was totally my fault for not reading the box before i gave them to her. they use wheat flour in the seasoning, ugh!!! i feel just awful! I've got her drinking decaf chamomile tea right now to settle her tummy...any other suggestions??

My daughter dehydrates fast so watch for that (leg tenderness is her first sign of dehydration). We give her pedialyte and it helps quickly.

We do peppermint tea but I bet chamomile is just as good!

Don't beat yourself up about it. Everyone makes mistakes. I put a new sunblock on my daughter the other day without checking it. She turned bright red and bumpy in minutes. Darn stuff had oats in it. Ugh. :(

It happens to the best of us. But I understand that you feel much worse having glutened your child than glutening yourself.

The chamomile tea is a great idea, as it is very soothing. There really isn't much you can do other than be there for her and waiting it out. And reading ALL ingredients lists from now on! :rolleyes:

You know I don't think the chicken ones are any better. I did the same thing to my daughter. Sick Sick Sick. I also bought the wrong kind of Dorritos once. She'll forgive you. Don't worry, things happen and now you know.

      Vitamin A is important for vision health. But be careful in supplementing it as it can lead to toxicity. Research it and consult with your medical professional. I do not have a definite answer to your original question but I was pursuing the possible cause of nutritional deficiency. But your visual deterioration could be unrelated to your celiac disease so don't rule that out.

      Currently 19. Doctors think I was 1 year old when celiac started, but I wasn't diagnosed until 18, because they didn't do lab work on minors. I've been on a strict gluten-free diet for 14 months now. For example only certified gluten-free nuts and I've researched best brands a lot. I take B vitamins, vitamin D, vitamin C, Curcumin with black pepper, black sesame and green tea extract, magnesium, iron, and a little selenium and zinc, beef liver capsules. I recently had my vitamin and mineral levels retested and D is the only one I don't have enough of now. I had my eyes tested at 17 and they were good back then.

      Not everyone with dermatitis herpetiformis needs to avoid iodine. DH is caused by gluten exposure, but iodine can worsen or trigger flares in a subset of people, especially when the rash is active or not yet controlled by a strict gluten-free diet. Some people react to iodized salt, seaweed, shellfish, or iodine supplements, while others tolerate normal dietary iodine without problems. In most cases, iodine restriction is individualized and often temporary, not a lifelong rule for everyone.

      Questions: How old are you now? How long ago were you diagnosed as having celiac disease? Do you practice a strict gluten-free diet? Are you taking vitamin and mineral supplements to offset the nutrient malabsorption issues typical of celiac disease and if so, can you elaborate on what you are taking?

      My vision was good as a teen and now has gotten worse in the last year. Could that be caused by my celiac disease?🤓😎🥸👓🕶️
