All of a sudden today every I go in the camera on the S4 and change settings, the sd card unmounts and eventually remounts. Help...what to do? Anybody else having this problem?

Is your card by any chance a SanDisk one? And even more, is it a 32GB one? If I'm right, the culprit is the card, not the phone. SanDisk is aware of this and if your card was manufactured prior to December 2012 and you mention you are using it in a Samsung phone, they'll issue a replacement, no question asked (OK, they might ask you a few questions, but they'll usually replace the card).
 
If you can get the replacement, great! But if you, like me, live in a country where it's easier to get another card than to get an RMA from manufacturers, then I'd recommend to either buy a Samsung Card (expensive, but sure to work) or an AData one (MUCH cheaper, and wanna guess who is their chip supplier? Samsung :) )
 
I'm having the same problem, with the same SD card.
Thanks so much. You're right, easier to buy a new card
