What Causes Upper Back Pain?

47 Y/O Male. The end of June I started having upper mid back pain...burning, decreased range of motion of neck, and then i started to have muscle twitching over different areas of my body. Deltoid, thigh, forarms, calfs, sometimes the back. They bounce around and are not in the same area. Rest seems to help. No weakness and reflexes are normal.
