What Causes Spasms In Abdominal And Spinal Area?

I am a healthy 96-year old woman. I recently had spasms in my abdominal -spinal area. I had a heart 3 months ago but continue to do my chosen work and enjoy my daily life. I had an ekg, a CT skan@blood tests which were all satisfactory. Can you tell me what other subjects I could study to determine the cause of the back spasms. Thank you
