Last couple of weeks my stomach has felt odd

I'm several years post surgery, it was in November of 2016 (wow). SUddenly the last coupe of weeks, my torso/stomach area have just felt odd. I'll feel twinges in my back, or in the front, and my stomach is just...laying weirdly? I'ts hard for me to define what I'm talking about, but maybe somebody has some experience. I lost over 130 pounds following the surgery to get down to around 270, and I've put a little bit back on in the last year and a half or so to where I'm hovering between 292 and 300. Any tips? My GP said it's nothing to worry about, just with rerouting the system thre will be oddities. I'm not in pain, but it just feels odd and uncomfortable.

I shouldn't say I'm NOT in pain, I have back pain the last 5-6 months or so, predating the belly issues

I’d ask for some tests to be done - scans of your back, abdomen, maybe an endoscopy, etc. I’d think you would have experienced any changes because of the surgery after the surgery not 5 years later. This may not be related to the surgery at all but it is easy to blame the surgery & write it off. The discomfort & odd sensations could be because of your back pain, a grumbling gall bladder (if you still have one), a hernia, etc.

Hope they can find answers for you.
