truvia, sweetener related

[katb]

I switched to truvia (from splenda - I know, I know) about a week ago.  I can't do it anymore.  It took me a few days to make the connection, but every morning an hour after my coffees, I get a headache, stomach ache, and diarrhea.  Sometimes it lasts until the evening (the headaches and gas, not everything else)

I guess I am going to have to limit my sugar in the coffee or use the agave nectar like my DH does.  The problem is I (heart) coffee - seriously I will finish a pot off if I am  home in the morning by myself. 

Is there anything else I can try?  (for the record, I was fine with Splenda, but was trying to use something a bit better)

Coconut sugar?

This happened to me too. Truvia gave me major intestinal distress almost immediately.

I can't tolerate most sugar alcohols either. Maltitol and sorbitol are bad, bad news for me.

Splenda is fine for me, so I stick with that (in moderation, I don't use it often.)

The gummy bears. 

I am still dying over that.
