HI Corrie,
This is a question you need to ask your pharmacist or doctor. What you are seeing could be a side effect of the Hep C medication you're taking or the Hep C itself. I don't know your medical history and I'm not a doctor so I can't diagnose anything for you. But, if the cramps and diarrhea are new, especially since beginning to take the new medication then you definitely need to consult with the prescribing doctor to make sure this isn't a side effect of the med.
Best of luck,
Elizabeth
