Could be any number of things -- but kidney pain is probably the most serious. It's worth going in to the doctor, even without clear UTI symptoms. If you have anything like a good relationship with your doctor, ask about having a catheterized sample taken -- not fun, but much clearer outcome.
I forget what you're taking, but there probably are some meds that could lead to muscle pain in your back, too. And ... um ... since we share one of those dx's, are you doing any abdominal exercises? Those can lead to back pain, too...
Good luck...
