You should get hold of the book by Lisa Lewis - Special Diets for Special Kids. There is a TON of info on the internet now, and a LOT of products out there to replace "wheat" things.

Going gluten free/casein free was the best thing I ever did for my kids. That and vitamin supplements is all they get now. No meds!!

Good luck!
