It could be a hernia. I got mine fixed during surgery, but everything you described as your symptoms is what I felt.
On the other hand I also have gallbladder issues, it was inflamed at one time and that only gave me back pain. Now I have stones that's a mixture of a lot of different symptoms but not all at the same times. Back pain is one, nausea, stomach pain. Those are some I experienced with gallbladder symptoms. I went to my pcp explained my symptoms and she right away ordered blood work and ultrasound. Maybe check in with your doctor?

I had my gallbladder out and a hiatal hernia repair all at the same time, so I really don't know how to differentiate the sensations between the two.

I would speak to your surgeon about it. My doctor found a tiny hietal hernia while inside my abdomen and fixed it before performing the sleeve. I knew nothing about it until I woke up. He said he fixed it so as not to cause acid reflux in the future. I'm 8 days post op and have had zero problems.
