burning lower back, upper left bottom(butt), nots come and go in the mmiddle of my lower middle back area both side hurts upon setting

I had to lay for about two weeks a few years ago with horrible pain in my lower back and it got some what better, didnot do anything major to cause it, I have 3 children and always thought I had to get every thing done by myself, a do it yourselfer or it will not get done right!
After I got to where I could get up and down bending was awful and the nagging toothacking pain in my lower back and hip seemed to get worse while sitting and then I would alternate from left butt cheek to right, then it got a bit better, then worse leaving me to rotate while sleeping, onto my sides, my stomack, my back, place a pillow between legs, under legs, get the huge ball, lay over on my stomack and touch the floor with my fingers and toes while on the ball -this does the most help now and then, lifting things as simple as a gal of milk seems to be unbareable sometimes I have dropped things, bending is awful and I can not lean over for evn short periods of time, I feel like I am failing in my job as a wife , a mother and a worker, I have so much trouble in everday activities, but I can not find the time to get better, the short fixes are only lasting a few days it took almost 3 months for my back to ease out of the burning sesative to touch on the outter isde of hip, and pressure in my area above my butt down in the lowest part of my back area, it feels deep  even having sex with my husband has became more and more pain, we were very active everyday for 15 years, and thats not durning my cycle, but we are friend and lovers with children and we are all we all have, so now that that is having problems I am getting more scared about what I am going to do, I have even had trouble wondering if I could have a bladder accident during the day becaus when my back is in a lower paing with the notted tissue the sixe of a small egg, that hurts and is tight but the pressure of trying to rub it out or viberate it out, is painful but it does help and the nots go away but are becomeing more and more often, just driving to tow hurts, I am hurting right now been on the computer for about half an hour and my left outter hip is burning and my bottom is hurting but the pain directly in the middel of my lower back is radating down to my righ calf and my pain is getting so bad I know my time limit is up or I will be in bed for a day or so witch does not realy help but it hurts never finding a relief point to rest, but the pain makes me want to shut everything off, I do not have insurance and our family have been in debt for years paying on old hospital bills for other things, so for 5 years we try never to go to the hospital and it is getting very bad for myself, my shoulder left is tingleing all the way to my pinky finger is numb, never completly numb in the back it is always there,!                Any help, the docotrs around here told me when I called that it would take several docotrs visits, specilist vist, exams and traveling just to get to the right reason and try to fix it, who has the money or who can do all that i cant but I am afraisd I am going to be in a wheel chair not able to use the bath room, be a mother of 3 and a wife og my husband who work 7 days a week to pay all our bills, helpppp!
My history, just in case it might help, I am in my early 30's, I have had a car accident several years ago they did nothing for my back it was okay at the time, I had went to school online for about a year where I sat in a computer chair up to 10 hours a day, not moving for 4 or 5 hours while working on the computer, Oh and when I was in 4th grade I fractured my pelvis, roller skateing! I am not very active as far as exercise, but i do move all the time and am busy all day with my children, work, house duties and church, or should I say used to be busy, sometime I just cry because I cant get it all done or get the pain to ease enough to finish! I am overweight about 30 pounds, too!
