Reaction or Stomach Flu?

Argh..

DS has been GF for over a month to see if it helped his behavior. There were no other concerns regarding wheat/gluten.

Yesterday he had an infraction. While I wasn't going to do a challenge quite yet..it happened. He had a small amount of animal crackers with wheat at 3pm.

This morning at 8 am he has what appears to be the stomach flu, vomiting. It IS going around his school and on Thursday a classmate went home with it.

How likely is it that I'm wrong and this is a result of those cookies??

I would personally guess stomach flu, because a 15 hour gap between ingestion and vomiting seems really long. I'm sure there are exceptions though.

I hope he feels better soon. My kids have been throwing up all week, too. Sooo not fun.

Thanks.. I thought stomach flu too.. but then started to second guess things.. I hate when I do that..

Could be either. I've had reactions days after eating gluten, often it can take up to five days to react. Everyone is different, though.
