Hello,

Welcome and thanks for your query.
She has a pinched nerve from the disc pressing on the sciatic nerve. It would be good for her to lose weight and to have an anti inflammatory pain reliever.
She can use Neurontin at bed time to give her pain relief and better sleep.

Do get back to me if you have further queries.
I find this answer helpful
