Answer
Dear Adele,
Well there are two factors that may indicate the surgery may have change your wellbeing. Your condition started after the surgery and the surgery went through your stomach. This process may have injured or cut some muscle along the way that attached to the low back bone or vertebrae. This could be a side effect of the body during its healing process.
I would recommend for you to inquire your concern with the surgeon of the facility that provide the procedure. They should be able to address your issue better since they had the full history and understanding of the procedure.
