    Sciatic Pain... Cant sleep...

    OUCHIES.... I am suffering from serious sciatic pain, on the left, and am having trouble getting comfortable enough to sleep... Have had to take panadol for the last two nights to get to sleep, and I dont want to have to take it every night for the next 4 weeks...

    I have tried stretching out my legs, extra pillows in bed, more water...

    Anyone got any tips on how I can get through these last few weeks a bit more comfortably????

    TIA. xoxo

    I used hot water bottles when I could. Other than that... nothing worked. I hope it eases off for you a little. I remember how painful it was.

    Oh heat... Forgot about that since my heat pack broke... Might need to invest in one... But not sure that I could do a heat pack in this weather... but maybe I could if it took away the pain...

    Heatpack on my back and cold pack on my neck to counteract the heatpack...
