See the Dr.: You should not have to deal with back pain that bad. Use a heating pad and take some NSAIDS (as long as you're not allergic to them-such as Ibuprofen) and make an appt to see the Dr. for an examination and treatment. Best wishes.

Possible Sciatica: Have you been evaluated by an orthopedic surgeon? That might be a good place to start. Take care.
