In need of a new back...or amazing painkillers!

Excuse my language, but I am so fucking sick of having a bad back. Everytime I try to do something active it starts bothering me more than usual and I usually give up on my physical activity. I have been noticing it getting worse the last few days and I'm wondering if it's from starting my running program. Argh!! I'm not giving up this time, even if it means I can't get a good nights sleep without waking up in pain. I really hope running will help it in the long run, altho I'm starting to worry that I'm only making it way worse.
