Could be your pancreas just complaining...try taking an ibuprophen or tylenol (whichever you usually use for pain) to see if that takes care of it. Mine would give me back pain, but never much else, for quite a long time (over a year), Then it started to get worse, and eventually resembled the acute attack I'd originally had, with super-heartburn and definately inflamed and bloated stomach. Not quite as bad, but bad enough to merit a trip to the ER. While my bloods still looked OK, a new EUS showed more damage to the pancreas than the GIs expected over that period of time.
BUT if all you have is the back pain, maybe you want to think about what you ate that night that might have had a higher fat content than you should be taking in, and avoiding it in the future. I'm learning that there's an awful lot on "unknowns" with this internal organ, the pancreas. I hope you can solve your issues easily. I know I went to my doctor when it became hard to sleep because of the pain, and also because I started to experience a lot of gas (which had never in my life been a problem).
