I only have back pain when I'm on Prednisone (steroid) and I stand too long.

Thank you for your reply. I wish it was that simple. I see my doctor in a few weeks maybe he will have a answer.

Yes I have excruciating pain in my upper back that comes and goes, no idea what is causing it and the GP doesn't seem interested. The pain radiates right around to the front and takes my breath away. It only happens 2 -3 times a month so I have learnt to live with it. x
