What Causes Painful Fluttering Sensation Mid Back?

I have had some painful fluttering in my mid back. I just had neck surgery and was told I need low back surgery soon. I was also warned that I have ddd in my entire spine. I thought I was having a heart attack about a week ago and rushed to the er. Only to find that it was not at all my heart but possibly my back. What do you reccommend and do you believe it could be my spine?

Hi
Welcome to healhcaremagic
After going through your query I cancluded that it may be due to degenerative spine disease as heart cause was excluded at accident emergency. In degenerative spine disease Diacerine and glucosamine will be useful as these prevent and to some extent repair the changes. Analgesic such as ibuprofen can be taken for pain relief. You can discuss with your Doctor about it. Hope your query get answered. If you have any further questions then don't hesitate to writing to us . I will be happy to help you.
