has anyone experienced this! Feels like I pulled something but I recognize the symptoms from upper shoulder pain when on a lower dosage of NDT. Just happened on one side of middle back . I try to keep still so it won’t stab again but then it happens again. I haven’t changed my dosage. Not sure what’s going on. So annoying. The shoulder pain used to last several weeks prior. Seems like a symptom of hypothyroidism. But I haven’t had it in years and changed nothing.

Stabbing back pain
I think it's the Brain making mistakes. When I am due my 1.30pm dose of NDT if I am out walking my left ankle starts to ache. I hurt this ankle when I was 32 years old and it never hurt until I had my thyroid removed in 2015 over forty years later, Weird. Only last week after lunch I took the dogs for a short walk after lunch and my right ankle started to hurt. The brains knows it's short of something and is trying to tell you. My partner laughs and says the right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing. In my case ankle.
Thank you for your response. I feel I must have pulled something as I was having spasms all night. Putting heat on it now to help. Hope it eases soon.
I get something like this if I eat bread, it can be a GERD reaction. My son gets it too, his is worse after drinking pints on Uni binge nights🙈. Going GF helped me, plus betain with pepsin for heavier meals. Hope you find your answers. 🦋💚🦋
Upper shoulder pain should NEVER been ignored - it can be a symptom of a heart attack. Lower back stabbing can be as simple as not drinking enough, and your kidneys are letting you know. A kidney is spasm is the worst pain in the world. So try drinking something and see if it helps. It could be you slept wrong, you have picked up something from the ground without care, all sorts of things, but lack of fluid is an easy one to fix. Hope it goes away and does not come back.
Yes. To the point where I had to lay down on the floor motionless for an hour because of the pain.
Sounds like it could be myofascial trigger point pain. I suggest that you look online for a good trigger point manual. You'll discover that trigger points not only cause pain in their point of origin, but refer pain to other, seemingly unrelated areas of the body. Most recently, mine was low back pain and the muscle responsible was the quadratus lumborum. I have extensive experience with trigger points. They should NOT to be confused with pressure points (acupressure), which is considered a pseudoscience.Fibromyalgia, trigger points, hypothyroidism, they're all related. Dr. John C. Lowe wrote the definitive book about it.
