Hey,
im 24y old and living with pn for more then 3years now. Im from germany so excuse me for language mistakes. it took over 2 years and 15 doctors before they found the right diagnose. senseless spinal disc op at l5/s1 inclusive :( im 3 months post op now. operated in austria from dr.aszmann. no improvement at the moment.

my questions is: i dont have any pain while sitting, just when i lie or walk. i cant walk for more then 500meters without hard pain. is this normal for pn? easy to sit and so hard to walk? anyone else with this symptoms?

thx for help
best wishes

Welcome here, Badpack. One of the diagnostic criteria for PNE is pain with sitting but I did not match all of the Nantes diagnostic criteria. I had pain with lying, sitting, and walking, although originally it was worst with lying, then walking, and last sitting.

Do you know what caused you to get this? Did you have a fall, accident, etc?
