Maybe its time to try another physiotherapist? They can help you with how to find comfortable positions or how to position cushions and pillows to make you comfortable, as well as showing you the kinds of stretching exercises that can help relieve that kind of back pain. You could ask them about TENS machines too (those little electrode things that pulse and help relieve pain)

Hi I can relate to your chronic leg pain, I have had r/f treatment that worked well for 6 months pain free for the first time in 15years, the second r/f treatment seem to have the reverse effect (worse pain)

Hi, I have pains in my legs as you described and I cant get to sleep as I cant get comfortable if I lie on my back I get severe pain in my back. I get pain down my opposite leg when I lie down just like you, I have had an MRI and the results were that I have de genitive Lumber Facet Syndrome. I get severe lower back pain, My legs go into spasms when I walk or the muscles really tighten so I cant walk very far. The pain in my legs is usually from the knee up. I now also have stage 3 Lyphadema and swollen legs look like elephant legs as they are huge, solid and full of blisters and the skin is so hard. The only relief I get is from Tramadol but it doesnt take away the pain fully. I was offered injections in my back but they did nothing for me. I tried them 4 times then came to he conclusion and Dr agreed there was no point in having the injections.

Dont know if any of this is helpful but its the symtoms I have. I had to give up work as travelling is a big pain for me also. You can go into the NHS website and get all the information about Lumber Facet Sydrome.

So sorry about your dad sweetheart. I've lost everyone in my family except my uncle and my daughter who lives 11 hours away. You sound so much like me, I aways get the weirdest things that are difficult to diagnose. Hang in there honey, you may need to get another doctors opinion. I go to the doctor next Tuesday and I'm not leaving until they give me some answers. I'm so sick of being sick. My stomach is a mess on top of the pain. Plus I've gained weight and have been eating very little. Why us indeed. Hope you get some correct answers sweetheart. Please keep in touch!!! xxx Mitzi
