Does tuna cause diarhea? (sorry t.m.i.)?

I think my toddler has an intollerance to the almond milk I've been giving her (she's lactose intollerant). She keeps having diarhea for about 5 days now. My husband seems to think she's having diarhea because of the tuna that she eats almost daily but she has had that for over a year now and hasn't had a reaction to it before. The almond milk has been introduced in the past 2 months. No reaction to it until now.

So I'm just wondering if anyone else has heard of diarhea being caused by tuna fish.

    If she has been eating tuna for a year and the problem is new - it's not the tuna. Nor the almond milk.

    Keep her hydrated and wait 48-72 hours. It could be a simple case of a food borne disease due to unwashed produce or something stored improperly for a couple hours.

    IDK... Maybe she has decreased iodine levels, making her intolerant to tuna?

    This is a guess I'm throwing out there, because usually hives are what comes from this... plus tuna isn't really a hardcore seafood...

    Just a guess.
