Default Another possible cause

Maddie and ans,

I'm hesitant to post this, but with variable locations of pain and frustrating other symptoms, you should at least consider the idea of fibromyalgia or the other related chronic pain syndromes. They have a correlation with back pain, both in their primary and secondary forms. Vertigo occurs, as do frequent headaches and sleep problems.

Just a thought to help you do a thorough search. I don't mean to unnecessarily alarm anyone.
