thanks pfinstegg,
i had an mri initially, after the injury, and they didn't find any disc problems. the neuromuscular therapist i've been working with said that it is definitely pressure on the sciatic nerve that's causing the pain - i guess the muscles pressing on the nerve? i don't know. he said that it's causing problems in my butt/hip/and down my leg. in any case he said in all the time he's been a sports trainer (he does both) he's never seen anyone protect an injury the way i protect mine, so he can tell it'll take some time. i'm going to give this a good several months before i go to anyone else about it.
