I recently had surgery for sciatica. Pain diminished for a few weeks but is back. I need a walker to walk. A recent MRI shows more issues in lower back. Not sure I want steroid injections or more surgery. I’m on pain meds. Not sure what to do next.

Ask for a second opinion from a surgeon who specializes in back issues and a third opinion from an orthopedist that also specializes in the back. That's what I did and I did have back surgery and now I have no sciatica or back pain.
Good luck.
