Change in diet?: First, are you eating something more than you used to? Sorbitol (in gummy candies), and splenda (sucralose) can cause awful GI symptoms. You are on a nonsteroidal med which can bother the stomach. Also, any new supplements or herbs may be the culprit. See your doc for an evaluation and keep a food diary as well.
