emergencies like that.

I did give him EnZymAid but unfortunately I don't have any Pepcid AC or Alka

Seltzer Gold right now

Thank you so much...One thing is for sure is that if I doubted this diet

before I sure as heck don't now. I now see just how much gluten and casein

affects my boy. Since he did get so sick and broke out in hives is there

something else the doctor should test him for like maybe Celiac?

you have answered my question. I asked this the other day but got no

response. I wanted to know about the long term dieters and how I noticed my

son seems more tolerant and less reactive with time.. Is this a observation

made by many or just us.? I would like some feedback from listmembers,

because I think this is important to us long term dieters. kelly

<< How long has your son been on the diet? >>

We have been on the diet for a little over a month now, so not that long

really. I hope this doesn't happen again.

Does he have any other food allergies that you know of? I have heard of kids

that can a reaction from touching or just just being in the same room as foods

they are allergic to.

I don't know but do suspect that he does. He has always broke out in hives

before the diet but I had no idea why. I will definitely ask the doctor to

run some allergy test on him.

Where do you live? I am starting a group for allergic kids. This should be

more important in the summer. We can't easily go to anyone's house for fear

that there will be something there that my son will sneak.

We live in Southern Kentucky. That's a good idea having a group for allergic

kids.

I wish you well with your son and you for yourself. I know the next few days

are going to be tough again.

Thank you so much . Yes, it will be tough but this will be a very

important lesson for me. I need to be more careful and try not to have him

around other foods like that. That's why the whole family is doing the diet

because I know he would get into no no foods in the kitchen.

Yes, Sprite is gfcf. I called the Coca-Cola company and verified it. The only

pop that we have in our house is Caffeine Free Sprite.

You're welcome. Also, a lot of other colas are gfcf as well. I know the

Krogers brand Big K cola is gfcf.
