Hi I've been on the IBS eating plan for a month now and my stomach still gets upset after I eat, it might be a few hrs later or sooner. I've been under a quite a bit of stress and trying not to let it bother me, because I know it will effect my stomach. I also work mostly 5 hr shifts so by the time I leave to go to work and start and then have my break it's usually about 3-4 hrs and I know this isn't good for my stomach, but not much I can do. I'm not taking any Soluble Fiber Supplements which I don't know if they would help. I've had a blood test for Celiac and it came back negative is it possible that there are other tests to find out if I have Celiac. One more thing I'm waiting for an appointment to see a Nutrionist. So many questions, if anybody has any ideas of what I can do I would appreciate it. Thanks and God Bless Georgette

Welcome to the board! It is possible to have Celiac and get a negative result on the test. There have been a lot of "false negatives" so I wouldn't rule out celiac altogether. Have you been to your doc? I would see if you can get tested for IBS, Crohn's, Colitis, - see what he/she thinks. A lot of things mimic the symptoms of IBS and it's important to get those outruled. With that said, there is tons of helpful information on this website. HEre are a few links you can start with: web page web page web page Take care.
