My sciatic back pain today decided to go one step further and spread down my right leg.........agony doesn't come close to describing it.

Doctor has prescribed me with some real hardcore painkillers.......and wait for it .........DIAZEPAN muscle relaxant apparently) !!!!!!! so please escuse any post that a)makes no sense at all or b) is littered with spelling mistakes....over the next few days..this stuff is making me feel seriously *not here* lol xx

i suffer sciatica badly .. and i get diazepan lol .
dont drink on em coz you will start seeing UFO's lol

Blimey, you're going to be well spaced out.

Seriously though hun, stay off the vino while you're on them...

Diaxepam can be really affective. Sorry you are going through this. When I had it some years ago the funniest thing was my OH helping me to dress and the trouble he had with my tights! I wouldnt leave them off because it was cold and I didnt have trousers.

TW the prescription cost me £21 as I needed 3 dif things.........my vino budget for the next few weeks has gone to the NHS lol

Rose it's well weird....*lights on on.......no one home* lol.

TW you'll be pleased to know I've found a chirapractor who I will visit as soon as the worst of the pain has past. xx

Jean my friend had to do my jeans up for me earlier as it hurt so much when I tried to do it lololol xx

I feel for you,I have had a form of sciatica in my right buttock( but not down the leg since June).Touch wood I think it has just about gone.I kept the pharmacutical (sp) companies going and rattled as I moved lol.
The pain is atrocious isn't it.had me in tears a few times,and the trouble getting pants on ...well !!!!!.I spent so long hanging on to my right cheek ,my hand and it became inseperable lol
I hope with your Diazapam and Pain Killers you get some relief.

Thanks Jane .......I can still feel it but I feel very far away from it if that makes sense lol.

Luckily my friends and family have been superstars and because I'm not allowed to drive are taking over my shopping ans school run til OH is off later in the week.......bless them.

The children are laughing at me because they have to repeat themselves several times before I can compute what they are trying to tell me lol xx

**was it a chirapractor Joan? I've had one recommended to me and soon as the worst has passed am going to give it a go......anything has to be better than this !!! xx

I blamed my sciatica on sitting badly using the computer.I used my laptop perched on the edge of the settee with pooter on the coffee table!!!!!!!!!!!!.I now sit up properly at the dining table to use it.
Getting out of bed in the morning and not being able to put the foot on the floor,
Soooooooo Painful !!!!!!!

does that mean we can all take the p outa ya muffers lol

well ya cant catch us if we do hehehe

Thanks Joan xx

I've had bouts of it on and off since the birth of my youngest...has got decidedly worse in the last year though.....and this is the worst one yet.
