Prayers for a speedy recovery. I've been there recently, myself. At the end of May, I injured my back while moving furniture out of my flooded house. The back injury sent pain shooting down my leg, and was quite debilitating. The doctor didn't offer much hope beyond anti-inflammatory meds or surgery. What ended up working for me was a combination of time, rest, stretches, and exercises. I'm back to normal, and thankful that I avoided surgery.
