When I was 12 I started having these same symptoms! When I would lay down, numbness and cramp feeling would be on hip facing up. I'm a side sleeper. Progressed to hip pain in teen years bad enough to keep me out of sports. Mom had gamut of tests done but nothing was ever found. It comes and goes. It seems I have always lived with hip pain and baffled doctors. :)

Yes,and after the pain it feels like both of my thighs are gone,from.hips to knees its like they are not there. Wierdest feeling!!!

Yep and sometimes its in my left arm and the side from armpit to hip.

Have you been checked for a ruptured or bulging disc? Sciatica is painful but when numbness is involved it is more serious. I have constant pain from hip to feet but not numbness like I had many years ago for a ruptured disc.

That was exactly what I thought. Sciatica. But when I have a flare I see my my chiropractor. Some times it takes a few treatments. I find I like doing this as opposed to meds.
