Waking up every night with aches and pains mostly on lower abdomen (front and back)

Hello all,

I am just seeing if I can get some opinions on what could be wrong with me? Most, if not every night I get back pains (lower and upper) and wake up several times throughout the night with overwhelming thirst. I probably drink around 3 pints of water per night during the awakenings and I just feel so dehydrated again every time I wake up. The sensation in my back is like an ache and is very uncomfortable. Usually once I have had a drink of water and repositioned myself in bed, I will be comfortable enough to fall back to sleep again.

I am on Fluoxetine and have been drinking heavily lately, but often notice this happening on nights I do not drink. I tend to feel very fatigued in the day time and its just getting me down. I feel something is definitely wrong as this has been going on for months and seems to be getting worse. Any advise would be appreciated.

Thankyou
