Sciatica | Golf Monthly
Thanks for all the reply's , didn't know so many people had it !!
Have just seen my Doctor this morning as the pain is still there, not as bad but on a scale of 1 - 10 its about a 6, last week about 11 !!
He is sending me off tomorrow for a MIR scan, just to check its not anything else giving me the pain.
He's also taken me off the tramodol and put me on Codeine, which is not as strong but still helps and he has asked me to stay away from chiropractors until I have had the scan, just to be on the safe side.
If its just Sciatica he will then send me to the orthopaedic clinic at the local hospital within 5-7 days.
Been told to walk about, if its not to pain full and to just keep mobile as much as I can.
Then I asked the big question, when will I be back on the course playing, as soon as I mentioned golf he was a different person, being a player himself he said he would get me back playing ASAP, then made a phone call to the hospital and got me an space in the orthopaedic clinic tomorrow after my scan to check me over and to see what they recommend :thup:
Will let you know how it all goes,
Del
P.S He told me if I'm back fully fit (ish) and playing with in the month I owe him a round at my local club, sounds like a good deal to me.
