Lower back pain here - degenerative discs as well, one bulging (but not herniated, thank God). Chiropractor(s) did nothing for me, but learning from physical therapy helped a lot. Learning core exercises and actually doing them helped a lot. On bad nights when it bothers me I have my Soma (carisoprodol) muscle relaxant, which lets me fall asleep but leaves me with a little medicine hangover the next morning. On bad days, I have Relafen (nabumetone) as a NSAID.

The core exercises are best for now, but I'm pretty sure (and certainly praying) that in 30 years when it gets a lot worse they'll be able to slap in fake discs pretty easily.
