Slipped a disc in August last year - since then I’ve had sciatica and pelvic pain.

The sciatica comes and goes - at the moment it’s sore but some days it’s hardly there.

The pelvic pain waxes and wanes too - but is always there, and for me is so much worse than the sciatica. I’d rather only be able to hobble 100m like I was back in August than have this… feeling.

It feels like my bladder hurts when it’s empty - like I can feel it sitting there. Then as it fills it hurts, but less. It feels like someone is squeezing the tip of my penis. And sometimes it feels like they pinch it with their nails.

It’s just awful.

On the worst days I can hardly think about anything else. It’s hard to work, it’s hard to play with my daughter, hard to watch TV or read or talk to my GF. It’s just hard to live with this. Really hard.

Anyway, that’s my rant.

PT makes it worse as well, so that’s fun!
