Summary
A 25-year-old man developed constant middle and upper back and neck pain with fatigue in November, about five months before writing. Physiotherapy twice, multiple blood tests and neck and whole-body MRI scans were all clear, and medications tried for the pain did nothing. After he restarted working out in March the pain got much worse, and he was unsure what else to try.
