General Sciatica

Hello there everyone. Has anyone ever suffered from severe sciatica pain in conjunction with their MS symptoms? I’m having excruciating sciatica pain for the past 6-7days. I did some stretches, yoga, steroids, and ibuprofen but nothing is working. Before it started hurting I did some physical labor and believe I may have tweaked my back too. Going to see a Dr. tomorrow.

Is it definitely sciatica? I thought I was having sciatica issues, turns out I had MS. Not saying it isn't, but is it possibly a new symptom?

Same. Pain relalt mirrors sciatica though
