I doubt at 83 years old surgery would be out of the question, but
I do have a appointment with a neurosurgeon in Gainsville in a couple weeks

Any ideas going forward

Where do you carry your wallet? That could be it. I walked 3 miles a day & one day I made it 3 houses & limped home. Horrible pain. A friend asked me where i carry my wallet. Back right pocket, where my sciatica was. I quit carrying my wallet there and it was gone after a week!!!!!
I did acupuncture before that & it helped but only for a week.
