Please continue to cooperate w/your docs and PTs. Consider adding a body-mind approach to pain. Search John Sarno, MD, online and it can be very helpful. Peace and good health.

Continue with exercises and anti-inflammatories. Look for pain shooting down the legs or numbness or tingling. If these occur, then an MRI could help with diagnosis.
