Hello @living_strong, welcome to Connect. You may notice I moved your discussion and combined it with one titled, "Chronic Back Pain for Years." I did this so your post would go to all of the Connect members already discussing chronic back pain and so you could read through some of their previous posts. You may also find the Women's Health group of interest, you can find that here, https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/womens-health/. While we wait for other members to jump in, have you considered seeking a second opinion. That is not to say that your primary physician is not a good one, but many professionals think that second opinions are valuable as they can offer different insight and sometimes a more definitive diagnosis.
