my husband started out having pain and burning in his shoulders, he would get headaches. At night when he was trying to sleep was when it bothered him the most, this is one of the reasons he went to the dr to start with.He was diagnosed with Bulbar ALS in sept. We are not sure if he had the burning pain because of the work he did maybe it made his muscles ache because they were not as strong because of ALS not sure,if he had not gotten slurred speech a couple months later,i'm not sure they would have figured it out so soon. He had the muscle twitches then, but thought it was muscle spasms. He does not have the shoulder pain much anymore,he hasn't worked in awhile I think that helped. Hope yours is something else,maybe a herniated disk.
