My mother-in-law is a pancreatic cancer serviver she is going on 4 yrs now, but now she is complaining of Mid back on both sides around the Lungs pain...she says it's like a stabbing, like someone is ripping her apart from the inside kind of pain, she says that the pain is much stronger at night and she feels very fatigued that there are times when she can't even move her legs... could this be a sign of the cancer coming back and it has spread to her back?
I am a 31 yr old female. I have had the same discomfort in the upper middle part of my back to the left side of my spine. It has become tender to the touch if I reach back there. Sometimes I don't feel it unless I lean back on a chair or move my upper body a certain way and then I feel a sharp pain. Recently I developed a cough and have brought up off white phlegm. No fever. I am concerned about cancer that may have metastasized from the lung. I'm hoping it's a pinched nerve. Is this what you were feeling Ruby? I have a Dr.'s appt. tomorrow to have some chest xrays taken.
H. pylori infection, kidney infection, stomach ulcer, hernia (hiatal)?

I have had the same horrible kind of midback pain since late September. I have a big garden and did a lot of very heavy lifting. The pain is centred in my spine at T8, but also in another spot a little higher up, and feels like a knife twisting in my back. It radiates to my right shoulder blade, so that I feel as though I have been hit across the back with a baseball bat. All the muscles on my back cramp up. Heat relieves it only somewhat. It is horrible. I have had chiropractic, deep massage therapy, deep ultrasound therapy, TENS electrical therapy, and I did all the exercises.All these therapies only aggravated the pain more. The x-rays show only kyphosis but nothing else. All my blood tests were normal. But I keep thinking that something this severe and persistent must be serious. It is really frightening. Can anyone comment further?
Did you ever resolve your issue? I have been having mid/upper back pain for four months - mostly on the right side of the spine. There is one particular sore spot. I am doing physio right now but nothing is resolving it. I also have a lot of indigestion. Hope you are well.
