Stomach Adjusting

Hi everyone!

I just moved to France (studying abroad for 6 months). And though I am LOVING the food here--it seems as though the food is perhaps not loving me.

I've been here just over a week (I arrived the 1st of the year), and just in the last few days I've been getting a bit of an upset stomach--gas, irregular bowel movements (hello, TMI!), nausea, etc.

Has anyone had any experience with this?? I'm sure it's just new bacteria being introduced to my stomach that my body needs to get used to, but I'm wondering how long it will last. It's kind of embarrassing (not to mention annoying) to have to deal with during classes or out sightseeing.

Thanks in advance! :)
