What Causes Persistent Cramping,pain And Diarrhea?

I am having cramping, pain and diarrhea for a few months now. All tests have been negative, however, now I noticed particles shaped almost like a pre-natal vitamin, which i am not taking. I have noticed at least six of them. What are they? I got one and cut it in half and inside was a white substance. Is this from medicine i.e. metformin?
