                        If you are still taking the multi-vitamin, try stopping and see if the problem corrects itself.  I found that my stools bacame much harder and that I was somewhat constipated when I began taking a multi-vitamin (I think it was Centrum, but can't remember for sure - it's been awhile).  I quit taking the vitamin and the problem went away.  This may not be it in your case, but it's worth a try.
