I have some experience in back issues, as x-ray of my lower back looks like sales exhibition of scaffolding because of all titanium bars and fasteners. I can give you some advices, how to get rid of agonizing nerve pain without opioids or alcohol. Just let me know and will PM you.
I don't have back pain, but I'm interested in your info. Never know when you might need it, or have a relative or friend who could benefit.
