Hello, Firetower! How are you?

In theory, it shouldn't, because it's just a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory. If someone has been taking it for awhile and suddenly stops, the withdrawal effects typically only include mild symptoms, such as rebound pain and rebound headache, according to the FDA.

There's no way to be sure how anyone will react to stopping any given medication, so there is a possibility it's from stopping it, but not highly likely and should be checked out by your doctor to be sure.

Is there anything else I can help with?
