As someone who suffers from chronic pain I feel like I have a lot of wisdom to share with you!
Alright, now... doctors are trained to make the symptoms go away. Which means they'll write you out a prescription for pain meds instead of considering what is actually causing the pain and how that can be fixed. There are so many alternatives to traditional medicine out there.
First of all: find a good chiropractor. Not all chiropractors are alike, so ask around and try to find some good word-of-mouth direction as to where to go. Chiropractic is god's gift to people suffering from all kinds of ailments.
But don't think it'll be a one-time visit. Getting your spine realigned is like stretching a muscle. If you stretch it out just once and then forget about it, it'll get tight and sore again, but if you stretch it regularly then it'll stay loose and functional. It is the same with chiropractic. You'll probably need to go a few times a week for a little while and then once it seems to be sticking you can taper your visits down. I'm at the point where I only go as needed.
You might be pleasantly surprised by the effects of regular chiropractic visits. I noted that my allergies affected me less, that I had more energy, that my flexibility doubled. Chiropractic has been known to cure TMJ, gastro-intestinal issues, and many other internal afflictions. Your back may be pinching the part of the spinal column that is causing your IBS.
I would bet, though, that you can eliminate your acidity and IBS by modifying your diet. Go see a nutritionist. They don't just tell you what you should and shouldn't be eating... they can tell you why what you're eating is causing your body to react the way it does. Make sure you find a nutritionist who has been practicing for a while and has a reputation of being spot-on.
In addition to chiropractic and nutrition, you can try acupuncture and massage therapy. Massage and chiropractic are low-frequency therapy, where acupuncture is high-frequency. I would suggest you doing both a high-frequency and a low-frequency therapy at the same time. You'll be amazed at how your body reacts. Acupuncture is like chiropractic, in that it's not a one-time deal.
If you don't make time to be healthy you're going to have time to be sick.
Good luck with the back pain... I hope there was something in there that you can use.
