Anyway, I will be posting a bit more often leading up to the surgery (approximately 10 to 14 days.) My email address is off to the side there if anyone has any questions.

I have found it helpful to do the stretching exercises my physical therapist recommends. Do some core strengthening exercises, such as the ones highlighted at The Mayo Clinic. By keeping your core strong, your back won't put itself in a position to cause that sciatica pain you are having.
