Grumbling Stomach, Left-side Tenderness, Back Pain, Diarrhea, Pain. History Of Gall Bladder Removal

I have a grumbling stomach , left sided tenderness with an aching back and diarrhea after eating. I had a similar episode14 months ago which lasted 2/3 weeks ( one week spent in hospital - fasting ). I had diarrhea for approx. 1 week and this was then followed by chronic pain . I was admitted to hospital where I spent a week on a saline drip fasting. Had a colonoscopy which was clear. However,I had my gall bladder removed 21/2 years ago and have had digestive problems since - heartburn etc and am on 40mg losec daily for past 3 years..
