Default Burning back....

I was wondering if anyone here also suffers from burning in their back. I have pain and burning in the usual spots, legs, arms, feet, hands, but sometimes my back feels like hot lava from the neck down to my behind. My burning mid back was one of my first symptoms. I have had an MRI on my lower spine, and though it has arthritis and compressed disks, they said there were no obvious nerve compression. I am now having MRI's on my thoracic and cervical spine on Monday. I had asked for these even though the neurologist there does not believe that is what is causing any of my neuropathy, but I think it is important to check out the condition of my spine. When I had an MRI in the eighties, I was told that I have compressed vertebraes in my neck, so I want to see whats going on. Anyone else deal with burning and pain in their back?
