DH did something to his back on Tuesday ( probably a trapped nerve, tho not sciatica as he doesn’t get the tingling in the buttock area or down the side of his leg), and ever since the pain has got progressively worse, despite already having strong pain killers for other issues, and applying a hot water bottle to the area. As it wasn’t improving, but getting worse, I suggested he persevere with ringing the surgery to try to see a doctor. Ha, no chance. Got through to be told there were no appointments available until 17 April. We’re not even out of March yet. So, what next? He can’t hobble around in severe pain like this for the next month. I wonder if it’s worth trying 111, though don’t hold out much hope there, either. Has anyone out there suffered similar and has any suggestions?
