Feel your pain - I've had sciatica regularily for the past ten years, biggest problem is driving my car, main reason I moved to a V-Strom. I went to a chiroprator for about a year which helped a bit. When she moved away I couldn't find another chiropractor who could help as much, on top of that I bust my neck and back dismounting my mountain bike akwardly. A few years of doing the rounds of different chiropractors and sports massuers I finally got respite by going to a woman who does the "Bowen Technique". Find someone in your area who does this and give it a try it has helped me with more than my sciatica I do get the odd twinge but that's to be expected working as a gardener. I honestly can't recommend this treatment enough it works on pressure points and seems laughable that it will have any affect at all, but believe me it works.
