Stomach pain+back pain+vomiting+no fever?

What causes vomiting light green bile, stomach and back pain, having no fever? ER doctors don't seem to know. CT scans and x-rays are unremarkable.

I have to agree with crambone.  Did you have an ultrasound of your gallbladder when you were in the ER?  Pain in the stomach and into the back, along with vomiting bile sounds like you are having a pancreatitis attack.  If it's not your gallbladder, it could be that your bile duct is not draining properly.  Many years ago I had the same problem.  Gallbladder was normal and they ended up doing exploratory surgery.  Bile duct was not draining and a sphincterotomy was done.  I've had 3 more of these since and have since develped pancreatitis.  If the ER did not do an ultrasound of the gallbladder, have your family physician order it.  If this is normal, you need to see a gastroenterologist.
Good Luck.
