Your story brings up a painful memory for me. My ex-wife's mother, may she rest in peace, had a midback pain for a long time, and she left it unchecked for a long time. It turned out to be ovarian cancer, and it killed her. It seems unlikely that this is what you have, but please be sure you figure out what you have and what a good treatment is. Don't let anything bother you for too long.
