Back pain is likely from sitting in a desk. You should strengthen your lower back.

Shoes are just a band-aid. You most likely have a weak back, glues, and hamstrings.

Weak abdominal muscles cause most back pain. Strengthen them and you will feel better. Do stretching, leg lifts, sit ups and planks.
I have degenerative disk disease in L 4 & 5. Even though my condition is serious, as long as I keep in shape, my condition stays manageable.

I like Merrills.
Just so they've got good arch support and enough cushion it'll help.
eta:I got bulges at L5-S1,L4-L5,L4-L3,L3-L2.
Like someone else said strengthening your Core is the best thing.

Honestly, the only thing that's helped my back problems (probably the result of weak core muscles and a sedentary home life--not nearly as serious as your condition seems to be) was jiu-jitsu, which develops and uses core body muscles unlike any other activity I've ever been involved in. Like you, I stay busy with work and family during the week and weekend, but I try to schedule at least two nights a week for many reasons--one being back health.
ETA: This is assuming that your back troubles are truly muscular in nature.

You might have a stump leg and need one of these bad mammer jammers

Get the MRI so you know what is going on. I do the exercises in the pic below. The main one is laying on your stomach and pushing up to arch your back. I hold for a 10 count then relax for a few seconds and back up. I do at least 10 of these. The other one I do before as a warmup is knees to chest. Hold for a 30 count and I do this 2 or 3 times. It only takes 5 minutes to do these. then I do very small crunches concentrating on keeping my spine touching the floor. And then do some pushups. I recently recommended these to a friend having back issues and they helped him.

Have you tried an inversion table for your back pain?
