Lots of walking and twisting lol..(disc golf) Yeah I know. My sciatic never has been pinched for years but not much of a problem... Till now. So I have sciatica.. I'm truly sick to my stomach from the pain and have been extremely dizzy. . About 3 weeks ago the lower part of my leg went numb.. Now?? Its from right under my armpit to my toes. Almost exactly hafe of of body other then arm and chest. Is this herd of?? It's pretty scary because I'm wondering about organs being effected. I have no idea about these things. My Doctor seems untrained so I'm feeling really worried after she sent me to the ER!! Please help IB is not helping much anymore and iv found nothing helpful.

    Hi Troy I am sorry to hear about your pain. I have had many people try Linnex Muscle Rub for sciatica, it might be worth trying it??
