Get to the physio or doc about your back mate. Back injuries suck big time. I'm 22 and have hurt mine 4 times the past 12 months. Physio each time and it picks me right back up again.

I know what your going threw as my mum was the same. I didn't quite do Australia wide, but yorkes to my gambier. 700+ k drive, and when I was 17..
She went threw a rough patch, but keep the phone calls up.. And Skype these days, always in touch.
I didn't realise you were in Melbourne. Always thought you were overseas. Dunno who I come up with that..
Anyway, your more than welcome for a beer if you end up in Adelaide over Christmas.
My son doesn't live at home lol .. he has been self sufficient since the age of 18 .... at the moment he is only 2 hrs away ... better than 3 states away, but yea. Gives me an excuse to get out and about more I s'pose.

Just had a so called "ergonomic assessment" a workplace "therapist" from the company that lasted 15 minutes to be told there is nothing they can do with seat and to suck it up and get used to a chair that is making the back worse.
Felling like crap now and struggling to walk, glad I biught the walking stick with me to work though

That's crap OD at my work place we get a work order and get the supervisor to go out and get a new chair if the old one is broken. Maybe go see a Physio as I believe they can write a note of some sort detailing what you'll need chair wise to sort your back out

GP already issued a medical certificate stating an assessment needs to be carried out. He is a professor and a phd in ohs and occ health therapy. Will be going back to see him. Currently upto 300mg of tramadol for the day so far and not even taken the edge off.
I can't review this as I am ohs rep and don't want it to be seen as a conflict of interests.
Worksafe came through and PIN'd them at the start of the year and still nothing sirted even after we ran a risk assessment

I'd say a Chrio over physio.
I've had a rather bad back injury in the last 12 month's and went physio.
Was temporary relief but was making no improvement as such.
Went to the chiro, straight up they sent me to x Ray. That showed I had a tilted. And slanted pelvis, and my lower disc had started to degenerate due to the time spent rooting around..
5 sessions later and IT's a huge improvement.. Not 100% by anymeans, but I can atleast move again..
Anyway, that chair issue is BS mate. See a chiro and talk it over with them, and get them to suggest something.. Take that to the employer and if they don't take it onboard drop into the workplace ombudsmen. I'm pretty sure they have to make your work station as stress free as possible.. Even if you have to come to an agreement to meet costs half way, Its a good outcome.
Put up with it is not..
