Hello @elizabeth17, Welcome to Connect. I'm not a doctor and have no medical training but I think sciatica may be one possibility. Mayo Clinic has some information on the condition here if you want to see if all of the symptoms are familiar - https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/sciatica/symptoms-causes/syc-20377435.

Have you discussed the pain with your doctor?

Hello John- Thank you for pointing out this information. It was very helpful. I never heard of sciatica before, but it sounds like this may be an issue. I will ask my doctor about it, and also start getting more exercise. Thanks again.
