I know that I've read on one of the celiac disease sites where gluten ingestion symptoms can be delayed and then show up weeks down the road- maybe it was on this site that I read this but not positive.

I would suspect gluten sensitivity perhaps. As mentioned in an earlier posting, you may very well have other food intolerance issues. Look at all the food you are eating every day and write it down in a ledger. Show the reactions your body is giving you and write the symptoms/date too.

I have been doing this and I can see that my having a yeast intolerance will be increased by sugar intake or fermented foods as well. I am now avoiding corn syrup and vinegars. Vinegars are fermented and they are included in mustard, pickles, mushrooms etc..... I had been drinking regular soda free of caffeine but it contained high fructose corn syrup! Definite NO for me. Corn syrup is in canned tomato sauces as well. Once again, you need to read the ingredient labels. Torula yeast is also used in many processed foods. < yet another reason to begin the natural food processing route.

I could go on an on but just wanted to voice my thoughts. What better way to learn than from each other.

Hugs

      edited after your post: "one cup of canned prune juice has 707 mg of potassium, while half a cup of dried prunes has 635 mg... whole prunes provide more fiber and fewer calories per serving." - google  When I complained of constipation due to my BP meds my doctor recommened prune juice without hesitation,  When I bother to eat Prunes or plums it works.   I think the fruit is better for you than the juice for addition nutrients.

      Thanks, I do include chia seeds and ground flax seed in my diet to help as well but on days that I'm not close to my target of 30 grams of fiber, I would add the Benefiber. My IBS-C was much better with both natural foods and the supplement so I will continue to search for another natural supplement that is not based on wheat to have when needed. Thanks

      Welcome @Trish G to the forum. Hard or lumpy stools and infrequent bowel movements.  My brother likes Phillips Stool Softener, Ducolate Sodium.   Just a question. Was the benefiber helping? Benefiber is only 3 grams per dose so lots of other foods can supply that.  Nutrition label DV for fiber is 28 g. 5 prunes, dehydrated plums, has 3 grams of fiber and additionally 290 grams of potassium. Potassium is good for IBS-C because it prommotes muscle contractions in the intestines.  Low potassium contributes to constipation and bloating.  Most of us don't eat the RDA for potassium (2600 women, 3400 men) and the DV (Daily Value used on nutrition labels) is 4700 mg a day for men, women and children. When I complained of constipation due to my BP meds my doctor recommened prune juice without hesitation,  When I bother to eat Prunes or plums it works.   I think the fruit is better for you than the juice for addition nutrients.

      I think you may be correct. The way the results are printed makes it appear as though it’s the ttg iga but I think you’re right—the 646 is total iga. So this would be indicative of another issue (another autoimmune condition, infection, cancer, etc.) and my doctor would need to do further testing. Thank you for saying this!

      Are you sure that is the TTG IgA? Based on the units (mg/dL) and having an upper limit to the normal range, it looks like a total IgA result.
