Thanks to the many who responded to my query about reacting after touching gluten. The overwhelming majority said just touching it couldn't be a problem, but touching it and not washing hands afterwards could cause a reaction if you touch your mouth. However, a few responded that they do react, some with skin problems and some with gastro problems, after touching gluten. We seem to have different degrees of sensitivity.
I appreciate all the expressions of concern for my daughter. She was just sick for one evening. I'm still not sure what caused it.
