    Hello,

    I too had your symptoms. Three years later I had a spinal fusion. Ice and gabapentin help but take time to work. On occasion I still take pain meds but only after exerting myself.

    Sorry about your pain. Thanks.

      Look up sacrialic joint dysfunction, if it's that than physio will help massively, I go to the pool 4 times per week and can manage really well but can't walk outside. I also have other spine problems so I'm stuck with this until my back is fixed.

      Gabapentin will help but ice is the best Antiinflamitory you can have, I get gel ice packs as there so much easier to use, hope this helps as I understand the frustration of pain with no answeres 😊
