Do any of you have a back ache when AR or gastritis starts up?

I've noticed when sitting in my recliner there is pain when I lean on a back-support pillow. I can't figure this out.

Thanks

Oh, yes. When I get a flare-up the pain goes from front to back and around again. Using a heating pad and moving it from front to back following the pain seems to help somewhat. My flare ups usually last around 4 days and then subside
I don't know if that will help you but I really do feel your pain, Cald14.

I too have had this. I get pain under my left-side ribs that radiates to my back. Sometimes I only feel the back pain. The only thing that seems to help me is if I lay down on my left side and just wait for it to pass.

I never get back pain from gastritis but heartburn definitely radiates to my back right in the centre when I get it bad. Fortunately that rarely happens now Im on PPIs though.

A hot water battle, or heated wheat bag usually help me with pain, failing that I take a hot bath.
