Question
I have severe pain that starts in the middle of my lower back and goes down into the middle of my right butt cheeck. I have Fibromyalgia and my Dr. says that is what it is in my back and butt cheeck. I'm suppose to start PT but,I'm in so much pain that I can't touch my back and right butt check. Nothing works to releive the pain and I have trouble sitting,laying and standing because of the pain. Nothing shows up on an MRI. Desperate!!!

Answer
Lisa,
Why not get an examination by a doctor of Chiropractic. Sounds like you are a text book candidate for a Chiropractic exam. Quite possible you could have pinched nerves.

Hope this helps you in your Medical decision making process.
