Question 3

why does my back hurt when i drink alcohol?

Accepted Answer

Hard to say: but the fact that you have kept drinking despite the fact that your back hurts when you drink tells me that I should be concerned that you may have an alcohol problem. It could be inflammation of your pancreas, stomach, duodenum or a problem with your gallbladder. I strongly suggest STOPPING drinking until you get a diagnosis, and see your doctor for a full evaluation.

Question 4

i can drink beer, wine, and most liquirs fine. i cannot drink any pre-mixed drink

Accepted Answer

Sometimes : Sometimes abdominal pain is referred to the back.  You could be having gerd (gastro-esophageal reflux disease), or symptoms of an ulcer.  Ulcer pain can cause pain in the back.  Ulcers can be caused by or worsened by alcohol intake.  You could also be having inflammation of your pancreas (pancreatitis).  Your body seems sensitive to alcohol so you should minimize alcohol intake.  Please see a physician to have your symptoms thoroughly evaluated.  If you have increased pain, vomiting, vomiting blood,  or light-headedness, then you would have to be seen as an emergency.

Several possibilites: Your body objects to processing alcohol.  Pain is meant to tell us something is amiss.  This could be expressed as referred pain from your stomach, liver and/or kidneys.

More info?: Have you had an US of your gallbladder?  Are there stones?  Is your pain related to eating or activity?  Is it worse before a BM or relieved after you have one?   It is not too long after your sleeve procedure  have you talked to your bariatric surgeon.  Endoscopy could ensure you don't have an ulcer or inflammation of your pouch.  Talk to your bariatric surgeon
