What Causes Indigestion Along With Bloating Of Abdomen While On Sulfa Drug?

I am currently taking a sulfa drug. Since starting it, I have had terrible indigestion, bloating and GERD. This is very unusual for me and there has been no change in my diet. Can the sulfa drug be causing it? It s so bad I have trouble sleeping at night.
