Back Ache W/ Stomach Pain

This is strange!  I have the feeling of indigestion with some bloating.  My back pain is mid back...right and left flanks...it is horrible when I am standing alot.  The pain (in my back) is relieved immediately upon sitting down.  I rest for a few minutes and then I am able to get up and continue whatever I was doing.  Now...I also started experiencing skipping heart beats (PVC's)  They seem to have started when the abdominal pain began about a 10 days ago.  Does anyone see any connection here?!  I am so confused.  I had a mild heart attack about 5 years ago and recently saw my dr. (EKG was normal)  1year ago I had a Cardio Scan done which was normal.  I have always had stomach issues and now I am not sure if this is my stomach or my heart.  Have an appt. with my cardiologist next week.  The back pain is really the thing that is bothering me now.  I can't make the connection.  Can my GERD be causing this back ache?  (already had gallbladder removed about 7 years ago)  HELP!

It's called Dieter's herbal drink, Natural green leaf tea.  My mom bought it from an Asian store, the box has alot of oriental writing.  It's a green box with three ballerina girls dancing on top of a coffee cup.  

But any natural green tea would probably work, you can buy it almost anywhere.  I drank a large cup, the tea cleansed out my entire system, try to give it some time to work.  But bad gas build up in the system, can cause chronic back pains.  Hope this helps.

What kind of tea?!!  I would love to try this.  You are the first person who has described exactly how I feel.  I know this is connected to my stomach problems.  The palps are effected by eating.  I walk 2 miles a day and I never have any chest pain or shortness of breath. Please let me know!

I had similar experience as you in the past, real bad back pains, heart palps, I could hardly stand, it was even painful laying down, sitting down.  My mom of all people fixed the problem, I had bad gas build up.  I drank some oriental green tea, pass gas fierce, my back pain went away.  I was surprised.
