I have had exactly same problem recently. It gave me very tough time. I used to woke up in the middle of night and cannot sleep afterwards due to severe pain. Sleeping on side or back didn't help at all. I had to get up and sit or walk and then slowly it used to reduce after several hours.
I have gone through MRI, it was normal. I went to Orthopedic, he said not related to spine. I went to surgeon, he said not related pancreas or anything. Subsequently, I visited neurosurgeon, he checked and said its not a neuro problem and you have "muscle spasm". He suggested me some physio-therapy exercises (SWD, IFT, US) and asked me to reduce weight. I am overweight (not yet obese) as per BMI. Physio-therapy and some medicines gave me great relief.
When I was in pain, I searched on internet and saw this thread. Therefore, I thought I shall write my experience which may be of help for someone like me...

I have the same issues as everyone here. Had MRI, ultrasound, X-ray, physio, acupuncture. I work a desk job. Gave up martial arts but that hasn't improved things. People think its in my head. Glad to find a community that understands.
Guys,
I had same issue. After reading this blog, i was so worried that i might live rest of my life with this pain.
Tried different different things my self, and finally... I found resolutions to issue to me.
The night i slept on floor, i could sleep endlessly. I woke up with my own wish.
Just put one blanket on the floor ( considering not wooden floor, instead its carpet on the floor).
Good luck.
severe back pain after 5 hrs sleeping
Hi every body suffer from that
pain
Do you have a congenital twisted spinal column ? And Did you
try to twist your spinal column ?
or
Do you have a normal spinal column ? And you have tried to
twist your spinal column Strongly to be more flexible?
if this is happen
the solution is that
you have to accept your original spine
try to go back to your congenital design
so
you have to adjust your mattress to fit with your original
column's design by slight elevate somewhere under your
back
put slight small tissue layers
I tried this and this pain disappeared
Pray for me God bless you all

Sounds like it is time to see your doctor and have this worked up. Get a diagnosis and then you can learn about the treatment options.
