chair for back sufferers

[racketman]

Since getting sciatica I find my office type chair uncomfortable to sit on for any length of time, do any of you use a kneeling chair or saddle stool that you would recommend?

Double discectomy here. Sciatica I wish. Sit on a ball or just sit on the edge of your proper height chair and don't lean against the back of it. Sit upright using your best posture. Put a little sticky note on your screen to remind you to do some stomach crunches. Keep the stomach tight keeps the back tight, keeps sciatica in check.

that's a slipped disc isnt it - I still remember my dad's yelps of pain from 40yrs ago! Gym ball sound good idea.
