Upper back and neck pain.
I feel that my back is getting weaker as I can feel a distinct pain in the space between my shoulder blades and on the top of my shoulders. I wake up with a stiff neck/upper back with a pulling sensation just below the shoulder blades. The stiffness increases through the day sitting in office (8-10 hrs).
