Diagnosed Spondylolisthesis, Scoliosis With Arthritis. Had Gastric Bypass Surgery. Taking Gabapentin And Celebrex. Reason For Back Pain?

Thanks for posting your query.
The spasms in your back are the muscular spasms and are likely to be related to arthritic damage and the inflammation in the joints caused by the arthritis. Spondylolisthesis is also associated with a nerve root compression or irritation that can cause goosebumps.
Another cause of your symptoms can be anxiety.
You can get some muscle relaxants prescribed for relief.
Doing a hot fomentation in the affected area will also help in decreasing the spasms. Back strengthening exercises under the guidance of a physical therapist are also recommended.
I hope this answers your query.

Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
