I will randomly get these intense back pains that will literally feel like several of my ribs are trying to break and turn out (closer to my spine). I can feel them slowly coming on so right now I take some super heavy paid meds and try to go to sleep (they always seem to come on at night). It doesn't matter what position I am in or what I am doing. They come totally at random. I have tried explaining to my doctor and she said that there isn't really anything to do unless I come in while I'm having an episode. Which means I would have to go to the ER for x rays since they are always at night. Anyone else ever have a similar pain or know what it could possibly be? I've tried looking it up and couldn't find anything close since it is hard to describe... Any help would be super appreciated.
