What Causes Pain And Cramps In Stomach During Dialysis?

Hello. My husband is on dialysis, and is having pain in his stomach, like cramps and acid and has a hard time eating. He eats tums for a phosperous binder, and also takes alkaseltzer? Would they be causing the problem. Read about an ulcer, what should he take, or quit doing?
