Is this sciatica?

I’m only 17 w but have had pains in the top of my legs / pelvis for a couple of weeks. Already feel like I am waddling and I’m not even that big although I do have a definite bump.

Today I was walking from work to train station and have quite a strong pain in the left thigh on the outside side and the back, below buttocks, can feel it as I walk and drive.

Feels like a nerve type pain or pulled muscle.

Is this sciatica? If so what do I do about it?

I’m seeing MW on Thurs (16w appt) and not sure whether I should make appointment for GP as well as I have a few random pains and palpitations and other stuff. I don’t know whther Mw advises but if I am to see GP may as well do so on Thurs while I’m off work and at the surgery!

Sounds like it alright, go see an osteopath or physio (I prefer osteopath).
