What Causes Consistent Back Pain Near Shoulder Blade?

I have been having pain in my upper right side of my back right near my shoulder blade for over 5 years off and on. more recenlty the pain has been consistent. My doctor told me it was Fibromyalgia about a year ago and gave me a prescription. I took it and was fine for little while. Well months later the same pain surfaces. It's not pain all over my body, but one particular spot in my back. But I thought Fibromyalgia affects the body, cause fatigue, etc. I work out, and am never fatigue. So one day I decided to press on my chest bone in proportion to where the pain was in my back to demonstrate to a friend of mine. What do you know, it gave me relief. The pressure in my head went away, the tingle in my hands went away. What could this be where if I press my chest near my right breast I am fine. No chest pains at all, the pain is just in my back. Please help me!

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, in fact fibromyalgia is functional condition more or less if you want to come out of this condition then you need to keep your stress level very low, try to relax, try some exercise, yoga meditation, of course analgesic medicine could work nicely but bearing a pain would be much better that this, hope this information helps, take care.
