Bummer!
You have my complete sympathy. My back has tried to kill me a few times and it's always waiting to try again.
I agree that the posture the seat puts you in could have a lot to do with it. Also quickly going from that position to standing could be part of it (?).
I don't get in or out of a rig fast anymore - super slow and careful. All it takes is one twinge and whatever I'm doing comes to a screeching halt. I just call it quits - get hydrated, take my pills, and get my back into a nuetral position.
