I cant do anything in the garden as i have just been signed off for 2 weeks with sciatica and as i have only had 1 day sick in the last 4 years or so I am going to get quite bored I feel.

All I can say is put your feet up, and 'enjoy' as best you can. Its a shame when your signed off work as your ill, and can't do all the things you dream of doing when your hard at work feeling your best. Get a chair and a drink outside and enjoy the sun, and think ahead a few weeks when you'll hopefully be better, and able to do wonderful things in the garden

There are many causes of sciatica but as far as I know Doctors nowadays do not recommend rest as a cure for any of them.
Have a read of the net, and maybe talk to your Doctor again, then get out and do all the little light jobs you've been putting off !!
There is a wealth of advice and exercises on the net - just don't over-do it !!!
Painkillers are there to allow you to exercise so take them - it's the light exercise followed by a little rest that cures the problem.
PS I know that the last thing you want to hear at the moment is some idiot telling you to stop lying around but it does work!!
Good Luck!!Last edited by teakdesk; 08-03-2011, 11:20 AM.The proof of the growing is in the eating.
