BAckpain- mets or not?

and it's not from any chemo or drugs, as I never did them.

I also do a lot of gardening and other stuff. Somehow, I must have strained something..maybe pushing rocks around to build a small raised garden, or whatever else I may have done, without realizing it.

It hurt to lay down, it hurt to sit down, the pain sometimes was in my rump, other times in my hip other times in the joint between the leg and hip, and often radiated down my leg. If I stood too long, it was awful for me at night...Miserable darn thing. I went to a chiropractor to get straightened out, and when I came home, I felt a lot better. It's still a bit annoying at times, but gets better each day now. I suspect it may be a sciatica (sp?) thing, which lasts awhile, and is painful. I also upped my intake of Ester C..big time. Vitamin C does help with arthritic type pain.
