Baby with Food Allergies - Any Advice Appreciated

We've just found out that, after an allergy test, our 10 month old is allergic to eggs, wheat and dairy. He had a severe allergic reaction and rushed to ER after eating a minute amount of egg. He quickly recovered but now we're looking for any advice from anyone with a similar experience.
