Reason For Diarrhea And Cramping While Taking Gabapentin?

I have been taking Gabapentin for at least a year, once a week I get diarrhea, cramping for an hour?
For the past 2 Sundays it has been 2 hours of sitting on the toilet with cramping, regular bowl movement and it's not until the end when I get diarrhea. What can I do?
