It is quite possible that your pains are related to the strained back muscles. I cannot speak to PMR pain patterns, but those you describe are like what my my clients (also 79, been a highly trained masseuse for 50 years) experience with back strain injuries. It might be a good idea to get a referral to physical therapy from your primary.

I know the back pain started
From muscle strain when I was stubbornly tried to open a window.
I babied it for six weeks because of pain hence all other muscles weakened.
I have been to physical therapist, chiropractor
Hot pack cold packs, pain pills immoderation, with no
Comfort.
What I want to know with this decease are muscle able
To generate repair or are they damaged beyond repair?
Haven’t found anyone that
Can answer that question.
Now I have pneumonia
Another complication assuming from less activity. ???
