You may want to give another saddle a try.
I can't ride flat saddles because of the lower back pain I get when I try to ride them. And I had one fairly soft saddle for a long time that was all right ... and then all of a sudden one day, I developed sciatic pain every time I rode. Switched saddles, and all was well again.
