Seeking Relief for Debilitating Lower Back Pain

I am struggling with lower back pain. I am currently scheduled to see a brain and spine specialist, a chiropractor tomorrow, along with talking to my general doctor about my pain, I am currently using CBD patches on my lower back and occasional ibuprofen to help ease the pain but it's not very effective, is there anything I can do in the meantime to help ease the pain? should I ask my doctor for medication? it is debilitating and I can barely roll over in bed without severe pain. I am asking for any helpful information/tips ❤️

I'm also considering asking my doctor for medication while we wait for my rheumatology appointment in November... Don't have answers for you but wanted to sub the thread and offer empathy 💕
