Sciatic nerve - Holy buckets!!!
First time experience for me. Started with lower back pain then one day I pick up my 9 yr daughter in a game and all the wheels fall off. Going on 2 weeks now. I've been to my doc 3x (got ex-rays...no major damage) , a local acupuncture person 2x (I couldn't walk after the 2nd visit), and a highly recommended Chiropractor (1x). I left the chrio office today without pain and got 2 hrs of rest in the afternoon.
Tonight is a different matter. Complete (level 8) pain when I lay down starting in the right butt cheek down to my right ankle. I have been trying to get off the pain drugs (vicoden) and non prescriptive (vodka) but tonight at 4:00 am submitted to 3 500MG vicoden and 2 double vodka martinis. Here I am at 5:17 typing this post.
I'm at the verge of tears due to lack of sleep and constant pain. Advice?
