Hello,
Nexium and Tums does not cause stomach pain.
The are used to treat the stomach pain.
Your symptoms seem to be related to a gastroenteritis.
I suggest to use an over the counter option such as Imodium to treat the diarrhea.
I also suggest to use daily probiotics.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
