Is There Something Going On With My Hips Besides Fibromyalgia?
I have fibromyalgia and just recently it has flared up. Especially in my hips. could there be something else wrong? I am already seeing a doctor with little success.
Do you really want to trust your health to just anyone with a computer and access to Yahoo? Here are a few links that will provide you with good information from medical professionals.http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/symptom…http://health.discovery.com/beyondhttp://health.discovery.com/encyclopedia…

That’s what the doctor said I have. I tell you what messes my hips up is when I have laid on one side of the bed too long and there starts to be an indention in the mattress where the bottom half of my body lays, so I have to turn the mattress around or just sleep on the other side. Or when I sleep on a mattress that is hard.
Have you had a MRI? I could be just your Fibro, but I believe without a MRI you are not totally informed. X Rays do not show soft tissue damage at all of course, so there hasn’t been any test to know what exactly is going on with your hips.
1 example could be that you have a buldging or herniated disc that is pushing your sciatic nerve and causing hip pain.
That nerve is tricky because it usually never hurts where you think it should. It often radiates pain and commonly into the hips.
Good Luck, I hope you get the answers you need.

Could be-is it similar to other flare ups or is it different-
I have also developed bursitis-even though the bursitis cleared up-it aggravated the FMS
