I believe you can be helped by a chiropractor. I've seen so many marvelous things done by chiropractors. I'm enclosing a link where you can find a chiropractor in your area. Never give up.

See a chiropractor. Many people have bulging discs and have no symptoms. You may not be cured, but you may find some pain relief.

I am in the same fix. I have had some surgery but it is never permanent, I am on Morphine now and don't know what comes next.
