I am on a quest. . . .to prove that I have piriformis syndrome and not a spinal related problem. The trouble is that I am over 2 years down the line and almost no further forward because as Dubious and others have mentioned here, consultants and doctors don't even believe it exists ! ! ! I think I have downloaded EVERYTHING there is on piriformis syndrome and (my complaint) post traumatic piriformis syndrome.There is so much evidence that the problem exists that it is an absolute disgrace that educated individuals choose to ignore and worse, mock , sufferers, who have a hard enough task dealing with the every day pain.
