I am thinking about you Tricia. Sometimes we do the slightest thing and your back can just go. You moved 1 mm too much in a certain way. You don't even notice what you did but your back (or neck) sure does.

I think bone mets are something that comes on as an ache and gets progressively worse for the most part. I think you moved funny and didn't even know it.

None the less, every pain brings to mind that it could be more than just a headache, stomachache - whatever. You will see that all will be well - except your aching back that you knocked out of whack without even knowing what you did!
