For the past 3 months I have been having problems sleeping. Going to bed, I find no discomfort. After 3-4 hours, i'll start tossing and turning trying to find a sleeping position that does not cause pain. It is painful to support myself to turn, rotate, move an arm, and getting out of bed in my lower to middle back. The pain is not sharp and it feels like a muscle pain (in my limited knowledge). It does not seem to matter where I sleep. I have tried the floor on a mat, on the couch, and on my normal bed.
Some background information: I am fairly athletic but not in very good shape. I am 5'-11" and weigh 200 pounds. I play tennis regularly along with multiple other sports. My bed is a stearns & foster and is less than 3 years old. I am normally a very deep sleeper and have been known to sleep through violent storms and fire alarms and also can typically sleep anywhere (airplane, car, chair, couch, sitting up, etc.) this last winter I pulled two muscles in my back (unsure which two), but this happened at least 2 months before the pain started (this is my leading theory but find it difficult the injury/pain would be so far apart). I've switched chairs at work (i work in front of a computer sitting down)
the pain came on slower than I would have though. Every day one or both of my eyes will be twitching (from what I believe to be lack of sleep). I would guess on average over the past 3 months I have gotten an average of 4-5 hours of sleep a night.
