@yram I too have nasty sciatic pai from l1 / l5 narrowing that is not pleasant while sitting or trying to stand.The sciatica has gotten that bad that it caused poly neuropathy in my feet and lower extremeties.Gabepentin,lyrica,neurontin,amytriptyline,noratryptyline did nothing to slow down the progression to the point where I can barely walk.They ordered a mri but I cant have it done for 5 months due to the system scheduling

@applejack112 Sympathy for your pain I know what it is like.
If you are Canadian you could see a doctor and get an MRI and epidural injection. There is a $C 900 cost for private service. To get a referral I suggest Kinetix Clinic from Dr Helper. Vancouver. BC If you can barely walk get to an ER if possible. I have multiple back problems from DDD. It affects my sleep, weight, immune system and of course my mental health. Good luck. The injections worked after years, then I got nerve ablations. Helped more
