I just found out that sciatica might be a piece of or the cause of my problems. I don't know. RA was on the top of the list with the docs. My knee cap must be the only reason...Yet I pointed to my thigh, back of my knee, calf, ankle, and foot and said it hurts here. By luck my leg was acting up in one of its rare moments at pt and the pt person got to see in action what I have been trying to explain. So sciatica was a suggestion. When the pt person was done my leg and lower back pointed to this issue. My primary did the same today. Oh did my leg cramp!!!So maybe just maybe I don't have ra. Maybe this is all it is. Probably not. Nothing is simple. It has not been simple for two years. Yes I am knew and want to learn. My lower back did not hurt when this started. It hurts now. The back of my leg will pop in and out (or feels that way) and I can't walk until it pops back. I have had mri, xrays, and my knee drained. Only for RA to come back+ by 1 point. So maybe an answer is around the corner.

When i was first in chronic pain i didnt have any back pain until about 4 years ago, thats when the back pain started.
Countless mris later, my back is in bad shape but not enough for them to do anything.Only prescribe more painkillers. My legs and that are always hurting all the time.
