Default SE's worse with food??

I have a weird work schedule and sometimes don't eat until 9 at night, and then other nights I forget to take my Gluc XR until even later. On Friday and Saturday I took it around midnight, even though I ate supper much earlier than that. Last night, I took it right before I had supper, then about 2 hours later I had bad stomach cramping and diarreah.
Anyone had this problem or something similar?
Thanks, Ber

From what I know, it probably has more to do with what you ate rather than that you took it with food.

It sounds like since you took it several hours after you ate, yout tummy revolted...I am the same way. I have to take my meds with food, or I can book the bathroom the rest of the day. Take your meds with a moderate carb meal and it will probably help to buffer the 'ole tummy.

Hope it helps.
