Stomach Cramps

I'm currently yet to be diagnosed, but started on treatment for lupus/multi connective tissue disorder. I have a lot of symptoms from different autoimmune disorders. My question is... does anyone suffer with stomach cramps? It's mainly in the night. I'm not sure if it's something else.Thanks,

Nat

The stomach cramps could be caused by the medication that you are taking.

Have you been tested for coeliac disease- yet another autoimmune condition on the list?
