Ray Sands: That’s right. Err...Ray Sands. Physiotherapist: Now I think you’ve been referred to me because you’re suffering from sciatica. Ray Sands: Err...That’s right. Not for the first time actually. Physiotherapist: OK, well I’ve got some notes here, but perhaps you can tell me, in your own words, about any previous bouts of sciatica you’ve had, err...what treatment you had, what worked for you, anything else you can remember. Ray Sands: Righto. Well it all started when I hurt my back, oh about eighteen months ago now – I was giving somebody a hand with a heavy suitcase and I felt it go. You know, just like that. Anyway, I slowly got over that despite occasional flare-ups and then out of the blue, about a year ago, sciatica developed. And it was six months till that finally cleared up altogether. Now it’s come back... in, well in the last month or so, I’d say. Physiotherapist: I see. And your GP said it was sciatica? Ray Sands: Yeah, I had this pain all the way down my right leg, and she said the real problem was in my back cos the sciatic nerve was getting trapped. I mean, I’m telling you this was no ordinary pain, it was really intense. I mean to the extent that I couldn’t stand for very long, couldn’t walk hardly any distance, I couldn’t sleep. The most frustrating bit for me was that I couldn’t even turn over in bed, it just hurt so much, I just couldn’t get comfortable, do you know what I mean? Sometimes I’d have a sort of ...erm... tingling feeling in my calves as well, but then at other times my whole leg just felt a bit numb really. It, it was weird. And, of course, I couldn’t go to work. I’m an events organiser so I travel about a lot, I’m setting things up for conferences, lugging stuff around you know, and so there was no way I could manage any of that the state I was in.　...
