Back Problems
To anyone who has had lower back/sciatica problems. Can you tell me what you've done for treatment, how long you had the problem, and were you able get relief/cure? I've had this for about 4 months. Went for 8 sessions of physical therapy, to no avail, and had to 2 MRI's. Now my doctor is suggesting seeing a neurosurgeon.

Been there, done that!

My neurosurgen said "I love carving people up, but you don't need it"
Was pretty much disabled for 18 months, then when I had to go back to work, the pain seemed to work itself out. I have to exercise religously, or I lock up. A short walk seems to loosen me up, but aquasize really helps.
