I suffer from severe sciatica as well and the best thing I found is a gel pad cushion that fits into any chair even my car seat, it's made from gel and its designed to take the load off of your tail bone so your not trapping the nerve it makes a huge difference I take it everywhere I go. It's made by ObusForme here is a link to it:

I have a new chair but it seems that if I sit to long I get sciatic pain in my leg there is something about the way they make the cushions on the chairs. I guess I'll have to make me a cushion to put over it if you could just get comfortable for a little while. Sue
