I already have done an MRI, bulging disc too.
How long did it take to recover, and can I continue lifting as hard after? Thanks for sharing.

Had that shit last year. Deadlifts, squats, lower back extensions. It went away. Take it from me, I'm anon on an oriental steamboat hull repair message board.
DDP Yoga solved my sciatica & back issues.
I got mine from a shitty low riding camero that I was crammed in awkwardly. Try and improve your posture when seated.

Try hip mobility work. Yoga, deep stretches, the works. It doesn't work in every case though, but explore every option.
Sciatic pain is a trapped nerve in the sciatic notch, and some peoples hips are more 'packed together' than others, with narrower sciatic notches. These cases generally can't be fixed by stretching.
