IANAD but sounds like it could be disc related.

> I've been to doctor after doctor after doctor and I have absolute no more info then when I started.

If you haven't already, see an orthopedic surgeon (preferably one who specializes in spines - but any ortho is fine) and get an x-ray + MRI w/o contrast. Sometimes you have to request/demand the MRI - MRI's can be expensive depending on where you live/insurance.

The ortho can then either tell you what's wrong based on the imaging, or have ruled out a bunch of stuff and might refer you to another specialist for other tests.

And lastly, for the love of all that is holy: AVOID CHIROS!

At the very least until you have figured out what is going on/what the cause of the pain is.

Good luck!
