What Causes Stomach Cramps And Dizziness While On Creon?

Good afternoon, I had 8 ft of my small intestine removed when I was 19. I have dealt with the consequences of that for years. I am an active and pretty healthy 83 yr. old and my physician prescribed Creon 36,000 UNT which has been wonderful in that it has stopped the diarrhea and other sphincter muscle issues. However, I have recently (the last three days) begun to experience stomach cramps and slight dizziness. Is there another alternative for me? I am a golfer and not proned to falling.
