Standing and walking. But I can go from pain free, to excruciating, back to pain free, in the space of 10 minutes, while doing nothing.
Had 3 facet joint nerve blocks (L1, L2 and L3). L1 and L2 injections hit the pain spot dead centre. Injections didn't stop my pain - in fact aggravated it for a few days. But all the guesswork is gone - we know where the pain is coming from. Next step will be injections into the joints themselves. If that works, great, if not, I'll get the nerves ablated.
It's been years - no diagnosis - no effective treatment - debilitating pain

I ADVICE ALL to go ahead and read Dr. John Sarno's book - Healing Back Pain...
Copied Post:
"PLEASE READ THIS IT WILL ELIMINATE YOUR PAIN! Guys, your back pain has nothing to do with anything structural. I don't care if you have an mri and/or xray showing bulging discs, herniated discs, etc. These have nothing to do with the pain your feeling. The body is an incredibly powerful machine and any normal injury would not last as long as it has for you. I had the same issue and completely eliminated it. The actual cause is, from your brain. The only way to cure the pain is by acknowledging that your brain is the cause and that there is absolutely nothing physically or structurally wrong with your body. It's not voo doo or some bogus thing. It's very real. I was skeptical at first but the only thing I can do is recommend a book which will explain it all. It's called Healing back pain the mind body connection by John Sarno. All I ask is if you've tried everything else and nothing has worked read the book. It's small and will cure you. "
