  6. Lizzard gave you some good advise already. Here are a couple of links that I think will be helpful. Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link Soy is not gluten related. Most soy sauces do contain wheat, but LaChoy is gluten free and San-J Wheat Free Tamari. Caramel and Vinegar are now considered safe (although some super sensitive...

  8. If you have the box at home, what is on the ingredients list? There most likely is a 1(800 #) on the box to inquire about the gluten free status. Marshmallows are generally gluten free.
  9. Welcome, I don't have young children, but perhaps you could keep a food diary and note your daughters reaction since you are nursing.

  18. A new post must be reviewed and "pinned" by a moderator, for content and proper placement. Frequently on the weekend the entire forum is slow. I'll check on your other posts.
  19. Imodium can help with the diarrhea and a very bland diet, but there is no magic potion.

    ARCHIVED Thank You

    Hi Karen, Hey, next time go for something a little more decadent instead of a hard roll. Recover time is different for everyone. Try some stomach settling things like bananas, rice, apple sauce and tea. Imodium helps with the diarrhea. But, generally it just has to run it's course. Hope you feel better soon.

  23. ditto what Tim said. My old friend Jiffy Corn Meal has lots of things other than corn meal. Please read the labels carefully.
  24. Sorry Gwen that you aren't feeling well. It takes a good while before you have the diet down pat. Mistakes can be a common thing in the begining. Just hang in there and do the best you can. That's all you can do.
  25. Alex gave some wonderful advise to make sure that you keep drinking fluids and some ant-diarrhea medicine might help. Should you decide to be tested for Celiac, here are the tests to request from your doctors: Anti-gliadin antibodies (AGA) both IgA and IgG Anti-endomysial antibodies (EMA) - IgA Anti-tissue transglutaminase antibodies (tTG...
