Yes. I've had it
I took Co codamol which I believe is the most powerful painkiller you can get without a prescription. I also used a tens machine for hours a day. I'm sure it worked, well - on a high setting I couldn't feel the pain any more - thou I felt like I was been pricked with a needle a million times. Which was better than the pain from sciatica
I even went to the docs, who told me to see a Physiotherapist, but I didn't want to take time off work. After about 8 wks it went away

... cheery, ain't he!
Anyway ... worth taking Joe's advice and, hopefully, the pain will subside a lot sooner.
I've never been able to get that without a prescription
Both me and the wife have had Sciatica (and still do from time to time)
It's a right
I had pain in my lower back and right buttock.
I was told to do more walking and my wife was told to do less
I'm not sure there's much that can be done. Painkillers can help disguise the pain but thats all.
You need to very careful with overall painkiller dosage.
Especially Co-Codamol. (Which can cause severe constipation is many folks)
Mine went within a couple of months thank goodness
You need to ask the chemist for it, you can't get it off the shelf, I've bought it from Tesco and Asda, thou the chemist might ask you a few questions why you want it.I've never been able to get that without a prescription
