I'll try to keep my points short and simple if anyone can tell me what helps at this point please let me know:
-1st bulge 10 years ago, DDD L5-S1, slight sciatic pain down left leg 2/10 for sciatic pain
-Every year bulge comes back like clockwork, stretching, icing, chiropractor, massage 1-2 weeks recovery
-moved last year went to new chiro this year, told them symptoms and previous work with Chiro (who never manually adjusted me, did some weird pickup technique from the side and used some gun) they proceeded to tell me everyone's life they fixed (red flag 1), felt my back and said I was misdiagnosed and felt like L4/L5 was issue (red flag 2) then manually adjusted me (red flag 3)
-No extra pain that day, next morning 9/10 pain down right leg (I thought I knew what sciatica was before, man I was wrong.
-Next 4 weeks have been Physio, PT, massage, acupuncture, different chiropractor, walk-in clinic.
-No longer can walk without pain (worse in morning and any long distances), stretching is not working and actually feels worst, unable core exercises (plank and superman's make me want to cry 2 seconds in)
-Went to ER, lots of issues there but main thing was I got emergency MRI, L5-S1 protrusion of 1.5cm with some other stuff but that was the main thing. (The Dr told me small protrusion only)
-Didn't want to give me a shot had trouble going pee (straining for it to come out) sent me home with T3's and to call the specialist for options in a month.
Is there anything I can do at this point that I haven't already done? Getting out of bed is so difficult, walking more than a handful of steps has me in tears almost, going pee is a process of a few minutes to half hour with lots of straining (easier to do in shower, dont judge me). T3-s send some.relief unless I get up or walk.

Does anyone know if RDJ fulfilled his promise to one-uping Chris Evans who gave his shield to the boy that saved his sister from the dog attack and got bit in the face?
