Have done a food intolerance test and gluten and dairy dont show as culprits..plus metamucil and other fibers cause bloating too..my question is that does the timing of going to the loo matter because when i miss my time it leads to all sorts of troubles..which also shows that i dont get the pressure or the cramps as a sign to go for the business..could i have low acids..my potassium is low can that contribute too..

Could be a food allergy like gluten or dairy.  Get checked.  Also try Metamucil.
