Dear Sciatic Nerve in Lower Back:

Flaring up right before Labor Day weekend isn't cool. I will ignore you. I will move in pain and make you rue the day you started up with me.

No Love,

Sit in a chair, prop your foot (of the offending side) on your opposite knee and lean forward as far and as long and as often as you can.

Take MSM (methyl-sulfonyl-methane - a natural analgesic that's BRILLIANT for sciatica) and ibuprofen.

Thanks! The stretching did make it feel better. And I will look for the MSM.

How will I every repay you? *wink*

Excellent! Glad I could help.

Got an extra brain sitting around that you're not using - preferably one with a photographic memory? ;)
