Thanks for writing!
After Five months it is unlikely that physical therapy will do you any good.
Go to www.sorsi.com, www.icak.com and www.soto-usa.com and look for a good chiropractor near you. They can gently take the tension out of you spine so that the disc don't bulge so much and the pain goes away.
Also, there is a good book out there by Dr. Batmanhelidj "How to deal with back and joint pain...." You can buy it at Amazon and Barnes and Noble or just about any bookstore. Get that book and follow the directions.
