Hello!
Welcome on Healthcaremagic!
The stomach pain could be related to the stress of the surgery. For this reason, I recommend taking an antiacid or PPI (omeprazole, pantoprazole, etc.).
Regarding the difficulty in moving your leg, it could be related to a nerve damage during the spinal surgery. For this reason, I recommend performing a nerve conduction study. A careful physical check up by a neurologist is necessary too.
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Best wishes, Dr. Aida
