Sciatica and pelvic pain, linked to breastfeeding?

Hey everyone so i am waiting on a doctors reply but just need to chat to ease my aniexty really.

About a week ago I experienced stingy pain when going for a wee and doctor did a urine test but came back negative for uti.

Few days on that went away but past 2 days I have had a throbbing pain in my pelvis and today sciatica type pain. My DS is just over 2 years old, still feeds during the day but 3 weeks ago I stopped breastfeeding over night. Had my periods back since January which have been irregular.

Has anyone else had similar? Could this be all hormone related? Just I keep dr googling and expecting the worse

Also had a c section which have no idea if that's related!

Try not to worry too much. Hormonal changes after reducing breastfeeding can definitely cause some strange symptoms. The negative UTI test is reassuring, but it's worth following up with your doctor.
