Well, I just figured it was from the nerve damage. It never happened until all the other TM symptoms started. I go to my neuron next month, so I'll ask him then. I think I mentioned it to him once and he didn't really respond. So, I didn't give it much thought. Good advice though. I'll sure get it checked out.

You could have bursitis, arthritis or other inflammatory problem. I wrote a short while ago that I get inflammation in my joints and that 5 drs can't find the cause. Maybe you're weird like me, lol. I just got over a bout in my right hip. It was so severe that I had to spend a lot of time sitting or lying down. Now, I can't lie on my hips because of very deep pressure sores. I'm sleeping in a recliner where the pain from the pressure sores on my butt is not quite as bad. Ho hum. I can hardly wait to see what's next. Diane in 90oF.

At night, while sleeping, I wake up with the hip I'm laying on hurting. So, I turn over and fall back asleep until THAT hip wakes me up from pain. If it hasn't been enough time for the first side to stop hurting, I just have to lay on my back until I fall asleep. It's really strange. My hips don't hurt unless I'm sleeping on them.

I've had pain for a long time, but I figured it was from putting my weight on my 'good leg' since the leg that was originally paralyzed still had a lot of numbness and 'malfunction'. But for the last 3 weeks its so bad that I sometimes can't sleep and can't stand to sit for more than a few seconds. Staying on my feet is okay, but tiring. Laying on my stomach with ice on my hip is the best, but not like I can't still feel the pain. Laying on my back sometimes still hurts that hip, but sometimes its okay. Some professionals are saying Sciatica, but the recent MRI showed no nerve was pinched in my spine. Piriformis Syndrome is a condition where the piriformis muscle is maybe inflamed and pressing on the sciatic nerve so that it feels like sciatica, and that could be the case. However, the physiatrist who's supposed to diagnose this is busy until almost mid-July. In the meantime, I can't even go to my PT (and I was really making progress!) b/c sitting in the Handi Van or even the car is too extremely painful. Has anyone had any experiences that relate to this? I'm open to suggestions here. Thanks, Sally Ambulatory T6-T8, 5/2005
