Need an Evaluation: Stronger medicine than what is available over the counter, Motrin and tylenol, (acetaminophen) which you can use as long as you are not allergic or have kidney or liver problems respectively. You can take them as directed on the bottles and you can take them together. The best thing you can do is get health insurance ($350/mo-try: esurance.Com) and get an evaluation. Good luck!

Be seen: 4 months is a very long time. You should have an MRI if you don't already and see a spine surgeon for evaluation and possible surgery! all the best!

Pinched Nerve: I would suggest seeing a pain/spine specialist to evaluate you further to evaluate what level and what can be done to treat you. There are interventional treatments besides medications and surgeries that might reduce or eliminate the pain altogether.
