Sciatica pain advice

[leadsutd]

Help!

To cut a long story short i have been suffering from sciatica for over 3 years now.

I have had 3 MRI scans, 5 injections ranging from epidural to nerve root block, which have helped to control the pain, but not the cause.

I now have acute sciatica again and the nerve root block and epidurals have not worked. i have been diagnoised witL5/S1?,disc bulge?

symptoms are horrendous, pain in lower back, right buttock, alway down right leg, into my foot. Ihave lost a lot of muscle in my right calf and feeling in my foot.

I cannot sit for more than 2 mins at a time the pain is unbearable, any exercise just irritates the problem more.

Please can anybody offer any advice or help to me. Desperate
