I know exactly what you are saying. It is basically "pas the patient around". I have had sever back pain and sciatica. I finally gave up exercise, long walks and cleaning my house. I love all 3 of them. I feel better but if I do anything, like walk to much or lift anything it comes back. I would not be afraid to the medicine. I am up to 1 1/2 pills now, but I only do that 2 times a day. If you are a person that develops an addiction easily then you may have concern otherwise I think you can control it. You have to do what enables you to get through life. Physical therapy has never helped me and I have always done it consistantly an exacty what they recommended to me. I have done it for headaches and my back of neither helped. Another site I am on highly recommends acupuncture. You might try it. Good luck
