It's excruciating when I sit and feels like somebody's stabbing me with a screwdriver in my tailbone when I stand up from sitting. I've been to the doctor and had x-rays taken, they say nothing's wrong with it but I can't take this pain anymore. It has not gone away for even one day out of 10 months. I'm wondering if I should get an MRI. Anyone with a problem like this that can help me figure this out?

Sounds like your pelvis may be out of alignment. I would suggest that you go see a manual physical therapist to assess your pelvis and get some treatment.

My suggestion is to get an MRI, there might be something that they find there, that didnt come up in the xray, also for pain management i would recommend some physical therapy, that ususally helps if you make it part of a routine.

You'll end up getting MRI's. the new deep scan three d MRI's are great, they show everything and can be brought up on any PC.
You must have a nerve that's being compromised.

mri would be a good thought, it could be one of the disks in your back or a pinched nerve. not only could it cause you issues with not being able to walk in the future, but it will get worse.
