If you have intestinal damage or irritation, it may take some time for you to heal. All foods, can be an irritating, regardless of it's gluten free status.

Many people here do have additional food intolerance's. But, I would make sure you have removed the gluten for some some before you try other things. Gluten has a very loud voice. One you eliminate gluten other voices can be heard.

OH... and welcome.

Ditto to the above advice.

What else are you using to make the gravy?

You might want to try to eat "simple" foods at first. Starches, sugars, grains, etc. are pretty hard to digest for a sick digestion system.

BTW I get very sick from corn starch too. I don't do any grains right now. I hope in a while to introduce them very very slowly.

I use either bouillon cubes with the corn starch or broth from the meat i cooked usually cook the meat in a stock flavor from a can .

While i am waiting for the BX to get back i have been illimanting some foods form my diet and i do feel better , surely not myslef by any means but better then i have in a month .

Check the bouillon cubes--some contain gluten. We use Bovril bouillon powder.
