You could also add some karo or honey to some water to get some sugar/carb into her system. Or give a bit of bread/soda cracker - anything really, to help absorb some of the juices. Evangers is awesome - I'd only hold off bc she's been soooo darn sensitive.

If you get Pepto - give about a 1/2 tsp. or so - sometimes they'll just lick it right up. You can give more if needed. I know how scary this is - hang in there, you'll get her through this.
I am going to add Pepto to the list. Should it be the pediatric variety? If the canned potato is still healthy, I will go for that as well. Is the Karo syrup better than the Nutrical?? Sorry for so many questions, but I soooo need answers from those "in the know".
I appreciate and value your advice so much, thank you!
