This describes to a tee my problems with sciatica. I have been through some great physical therapy and without it I wouldn't have learned correct ways of sitting; driving; and using the computer. Physical therapy helped immensly and it taught me to notice when it flares up to help myself. The "burning" really describes it!
Please try physical therapy again...it hurt me worse at the beginning before it improved. Strenghtening your abs makes a huge difference too. So sorry for you!
