I had 3 bulged discs back in 2007. I spent the next 2 years doing twice a week visits to a chiropractor, alternating hot and cold packs on my spine, and sitting on one of those big exercise balls. The hot/cold therapy and ball did more good than the chiropractor. Finally went to another chiropractor in VT, and he had me back together in 2 months. My back is good now for the most part, but if I lift something too heavy (150+ lbs) I'll get the sciatica going for a few days.
I feel for you. Hope you get well soon.
