What Causes Lower Back Pain Despite A Normal MRI Report?

yes I have been in pain for the last14 months with no real diagnosis of the cause of my pain. I have pain in my lower back, under my left buttocks in the area where my leg rotates. Sciatica and hip problems have bee ruled out with many MRI and cortisone and epidural injections, I have no other choices of where to go as my pain is sail more intense if I sit to long. I grabbing at straws that help can be found. Thanks for at least listening
