I'm about ready to call medics i have severe back pain when walking or doing chores. it's so severe i start swearing and i have to sit down?

See a doctor: Yes. Call the medics to get you to the hospital, or see your family doctor for an evaluation. Many things can cause severe back pain and a medical workup is of the essence. Good luck.
