I have had this sore back since fri am. The closest thing I can compare it too is the feeling of getting an epidural, sharp shooting, pain. The most intense pain comes when swallowing, very odd. It does hurt to take deep breaths and have any pressure put on my arms, I am now starting to get sore arms, as if I have been working out the last few days. Its now getting to the point where I cant sleep well, and ibuprofen isnt touching it. Has anyone had these symptoms before? I cant go to the MD till sat, and its scaring me having that "spinal tap" sensation. Thanks in advance
