I have the same exact problem....I was also told it was IBS...I recently had a bone density scan done of my back and found i have osteo arthritus (degenerative joint disease)...this problam runs in my family so I was not supprised but was told for years that I was too young to have it..I am now 25 and have proved them wrong....the morral is, ask your dr. to do a bone density scan of your back and hips. I hope you don't have this but you have the same exact symptoms as I do...

I was *sure* it was my appendix, turned out to be my gallbladder. Pain was gone right after my GB surgery.
You might have your physician check on your gallbladder. Sometimes that can cause this type of pain, and gallbladder pain can radiate to the back.
