Even though it's for constipation, I have found that Colace (a stool softener) helps with what you're experiencing as well. 2 of my meds (not what you're taking) have caused some GI issues and I find this helps. I used to take two at night, now two in the morning and two at night. My PCP recommended it.
The brand (Colace) is super pricey, but a store brand stool softener would no doubt be just as good.
Avoiding milk products might help (or you could give it a trial and see if it helps) and certain vegetables.
I've never heard a doctor recommend citrus for specifically what you are experiencing, but you could ask your doctor if it would help. If you suffer from acid reflux or heartburn, I'd avoid it if I were you, though.
I'd see your PCP and see what he/she recommends -not the most fun conversation to have, but they've heard it all, not a problem.
