Worried

It may be coincidence but I have a four month old granddaughter who had a difficult start so after spending many many hours rocking her etc I have developed low back pain and heavy aching legs I’ve been to physio but not made any difference. On top of this I have really severe anxiety which makes me think it’s something serious wrong with me. I lost my daughter and it left me with this awful anxiety. Does anyone else suffer with back and leg problems. It doesn’t seem like it’s classic sciatica as I’m not getting a direct pain from my buttocks but more generalised. Many thanks sue 😊

The constant holding and caring for an infant can certainly strain the back. I'm sorry to hear that PT hasn't helped you in any way. You should probably see a doctor who can order an MRI of your back to see what's going on. They're going to want to do a flat x-ray first and that's fine it's the cheaper way of going about it anyway. The problem with a flat x-ray is it does not show things like bulging discs or degenerative disc disease a lot of things that an MRI will show. But a flat x-ray will show arthritis which might be the problem with your back. And you aggravating the arthritis by holding the baby for so long. I hope things work out for you in the future. I have horrible back pain and I can't hold my grandchildren because of it. But you make do. I don't think my grandchildren are traumatized because I can't pick them up.

Sorry to hear about your back troubles... Sounds like you are going through a lot of pain and discomfort. I was going through the same thing for 3-4 years until i found a book called Healing Back Pain By: Dr John E Sarno. After finding a cure for my back pain i said i will reach out to everyone i can.
3 Years ago I was in a car accident that caused a whip lash in my neck which resulted into major Neck, Back and Left Arm pain. After MRI's and Ex rays doctors told me i have a C5-C6 herniated Disc. After 2 years of Physical Therapy, injections, seeing neurologist and spinal doctors nothing could help. My Back surgeon advised surgery and I thought that was my way out of this misery. 3 months later I had the surgery and i finally started feeling better! I continued to get rehab and massages for a year and a half after the surgery and i felt great! All of a sudden the pain came back with a vengeance. At this point i could not bare the pain i was dealing with.. I could not sleep, lift, sit or lay down without feeling some kind of pain or extreme discomfort.
This is when i found Dr. John E Sarno's Book. I've been reading all of his books this year and i can finally say i cured my back pain. This may sound crazy to some of you but what most of you are experiencing is not actually "back pain". It is oxygen deprivation that is making you think you have a back abnormality. We have a conscious and an unconscious mind. Most of you may have thoughts or repressed anger in your unconscious that you may have never addressed or faced. What your body is doing is distracting your mind from reaching into your unconscious by causing you to focus on a physical pain such as Back pain, Leg pain, Sciatica and so on.
Unfortunately Dr. John E Sarno is no longer with us and has passed this summer. I do not work for him or any of his colleagues trying to sell his book. I'm just a normal guy that experienced all of your troubles. Its an easy read and the book is 8 dollars on Amazon. Give it a try and you will thank me later.
