Yes, it sounds like herniated disc’s, pinching on nerves. I had this L-4 L-5, laminectomy and discectomy (without fusion) it worked wonderfully- my lumbar spine has little issues now comparatively to the rest of my spine. Best of luck to you with treatment wisdom and care.

I am able to clean the bathroom in this position...and hop into bed..but that's about it. I look like some cartoon character!
Thanks
