hello all! i'm having a major flare up of sciatica for the first time since being diagnosed as a diabetic. I called up my doctor's office and they sent a prescription of Ducflonesac(sp?) which is an NSAID. To put it mildly it isn't working like it has in the past. I want to call and make an appointment to go in and see the doctor however I have read that steroids will just make your BG go up like crazy. So I don't want to drop $150 (yay HSA!) on an office visit just for him to tell me to eat the NSAID like candy. Does anyone else have this issue and if so what do you take when the normal stretching etc doesn't help you? I don't want to take an opiate painkiller, but I also don't want to sound like someone that is shopping for a pill. Any advice is welcome.
